They have the same rights, if not more, then a natural child. To be kept in a safe, clean environment, to have food to eat and an education provided to them, proper clothing and medical care. As far as material things, not a priority, but nice if they can be provided. The monies the foster "parents" get from the state is to maintain all of the above. They are not to spend it on themselves or other children in the home. If the foster child is being mistreated in any way, they have the right to tell the case worker or some other trusted adult of the issues and get reassigned.

How is adoption and foster care the same?

They aren't the same. Adoption is becoming the legal parent and foster care means the state is the childs guardian. The state makes all important decisions regarding the child and the foster parents have no rights, the state can just come in and move the child to another foster home for no reason. Adopted children are yours forever.
