* My math says it costs the state more to do this than just leaving everything alone. Like with child protective services, they cut the budget and then there was a rash of inexplicable and really fucking public nursing home and adult and child abuse cases hitting all the papers.
I live in Texas too, and it scares me every time I see one of those cases on the news because they're talking about 4, 5, hell, 8 kids being removed from a home...but nobody I talk to in the foster parent network is being placed right now, at least not by DFPS (who I was licensed by) and supposedly not via private agencies (who I'm trying to get licensed by). Where are these kids going?
