No, the foster care system i would say is a worse experience then having no money.

There are state subsidies that could help buy things

Life is sometimes not to fair to say the least. What the parent needs to do is to go to school ( learn a trade ) on a part time basis and over a period of time will be able to supply allot more than you have mentioned in your question. Only that person can make changes in their lives.

As I see it, the child has a roof over it's head and the basic necessities. Now barring any other situation that might be hidden in your question and taking your question at face value..I would say absolutely not. The child should stay with the parent/s because that is where the child belongs. Period.

Now this answer makes sense.

The key to a better paycheck........
is by EDUCATION. There are no short cuts. But a trade can be learn ed over a period of time. Once the individual learns that in order to provide a better material needs situation and does something about it then things will turn out better for everyone involved.

If the parent is able to meet the child's basic needs for physical and emotional development, then no. A child doesn't need luxuries, first-hand brand-name clothes, and all the newest toys.

However, a child does need to have proper nutrition, supervision, and care. The parent should take a long hard look at the situation and do some serious soul-searching. If he or she can not provide for the child's basic needs, then the child is being neglected and deserves a family who can provide for those needs.

Some times no matter how much a parent loves his or her child, they simply aren't able to meet the child's needs -- some times through no fault of the parent's own.

I am in the process of adopting a newborn, and I would have to say NO. The parent would regret that decision for the rest of their lives!! There are legitimate situations that people choose to place their child for adoption, but not being able to provide the very best, is not a sound reason to do so.

If the person is wondering if they should place for adoption, please encourage them to receive counseling (preferably not from an adoption agency, as their best interest would be for the mother to place her child).

This was a very un-biased response, as we are hoping more than anything to adopt a child...but I cannot see that being a reason for this mother to consider doing so!

No. If you are able to provide the necessities why would you abandon your children. Putting a child up for adoption does not guarantee them a better life.

No I dont beleive so. If you can manage the childs well being then no. If you only want to give the child up because THIS PERSON doesnt want the responsiblity, thats cruel. I think that this person should think long and hard before making any decision!

No....no money can buy love. Love can buy love! As long as the love, nurture, and life necessities are there then that's all that matters!
