In the state of ma. How much do you get a month for a child that is 10 years of age.
Most states pay foster parents far less than what middle-income families spend to raise their children. Average monthly pay for foster care in Ohio is 275 dollars a month for ages 2 to 16.
The foster parents receive a set sum for each child from the state and the parents pay the state. Since it would be a very different sum for each child based on what parents can pay, the sum is set for each child and every state have this system. The foster parents should not have to use their money. if that was the case we would have very few foster families because they would not afford it.
yes
Depends on the situation and reason the child goes into foster care but usually the biological parents have to pay the state and the state pay the foster family.
Yes. Who else could...obviously the parents are out of the picture.
Yes of course they do. They have to have an income since you don't get paid to foster, you just get money to cover the child's expenses. You still need a job.
If the child is in foster care you pay but not if the child is adopted. Then the child have new parents who are responsible for him/her.
the parents both pay child support, but only 7 out of 1000 mothers ever do.
as much as you like to give them there is no rule
CPS normally pays foster families amounts hovering around $675 per child per month.
It depends on the age of the child and any medical conditions they have, but the standard for foster children in Missouri is $258 a month for birth to age 5; $355 a month for ages 6 to 12; and $372 a month for children 13 and older.
As much / as little as they are willing and able to afford.
