Answer-
I think both questions are basically the same, but need an answer from a different angle. FIRST off- You don't just get "put in foster care", no matter WHAT is going on. In the case of alcoholic parents, there first has to be credible evidence for an agency to OPEN a case and investigate to start with. (It may be CPS; child protective services, or DCF; dept. of children & families) depending on what state you live in. THEN, the investigating agency must determine if there is neglect and/or abuse. THEN, depending on how bad it is, they could recommend parent training classes with intervention help from the agency ( that's one of many jobs I've held, working with children) or they could decide to remove the child/children. If the parents show vast improvement over time, the child/children usually go back with biological parents. If it's found to be really really bad, the agency could go to court to sever relationship between parent & child permanently ...again, depending on a lot of factors...most states and state agencies want to keep children with family, PLUS, foster homes are bursting at the seams, and good honest people aren't exactly breaking down the doors of the agencies to become foster families, which is truly unfortunate. Plus, the grass always looks greener in someone elses yard. I'm not trying to say that some kids (many kids) don't have it really bad at home, but a really good, happy, loving foster home is a rare find. Believe me, I've been in this field for many years and can count on one hand the GREAT foster homes I've been fortuneate to know.

Who gets custody if both parents die but they are divorced and I live with my dad and my brother lives with my mom?
If a person is designated as the custodian in the parents' will(s), then that person is likely to be granted the custody. If however, there was no will, or no custodian specified in the will, then, then the court can appoint a custodian of its own choice. Usually, any of the relatives - uncles, aunts, grand parents, step parents, and even friends and strangers can apply for the custody. It is the responsibility of the court to choose the custodian. In case there are no will, or no custodian specified, and no petitions, then the court may put the children in foster care. This answer is actually independent of the marital status of the parents, and which child is living with whom at the time of the parents' death.
