The money is to cover the expenses for the child but it's the foster parents that manage the money.
No, that is not an income or salary. That is like child support for the foster child and should cover the expenses for that child.
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.
You do not get paid for being a foster parent you get reimbursed for child's expenses and they also receive a medical card so there is no medical bills that the family incurs. Getting paid for being a foster parent is the give and take relationship you achieve with your child. In some states, foster parents are in fact paid a perdiem for each child. An average in Texas is $30 per day per child. This is meant to cover the child's expenses (other than medical) but it isn't reimbursed. It's paid to the foster family and they are expected to provide for the child.
You don't get paid. Its more like reimbursement for the child's expenses. Its usually about $400-$600 a month but that depends on the child disability needs.
No it isn't
If there is no living spouse, the children are responsible. If the daughter is the only child, it is her responsibility. In return for raising children and the expenses associated with it, I would think the least a parent could expect is for their child to pay for their funeral.
