Persuasive Essay On Child Welfare

Misery, abandonment, and no love, how can one let a child grow up with thoughts so negative running through their minds? Children are removed from their homes, forced to live in strangers houses, and expected to behave like they live in a stable living environment. All this is occurring so fast, that they can’t process their situation and feel like they don’t have anyone in the world that loves them. Although our nation claims to be doing the best they can with child welfare, the entire program has focused their efforts on removing children from their homes instead of focusing on the child’s emotional needs. Mr. President, we need to fix this issue now because children are the future. When a family is torn apart because allegations of abuse, neglect, or financial issues, placing a child in foster care, rather than trying to fix the problem, can only further damage a child’s well being.

Babysitting is a very important job; teenagers are out in this world having babies while never having the knowledge of taking care of an infant, toddler, or child, and they need to babysit at least once to know what a child is like, before having one of their own. Every child is different; you will never babysit one that’s the same, if babysitting siblings, never treat one any different than the other, love them both the same. Furthermore, babysitting should advance you in child care, especially when it comes to what career choice you choose. With this in mind, babysitting is a very enjoyable job, and also knowing that the parents trust you with their children and know that you will protect them should bring you joy. While babysitting, one

Laws in most states mandate that reasonable efforts be provide to families who become involved with child welfare agencies.  Social workers, on behalf of the agency toil to provide reasonable efforts to families.  Presumptively, reasonable efforts are provided for families to mitigate the issues that brought them to the attention of child protection agency.

Children suffer significantly until someone decides to protect them. The government allocates funds to establish the foster care system and that system advances to enforce rights for children. When the right to remove children from an abusive situation first originated, the foster care system established a separation procedure for children from their abusive homes. This act of removing children from their families brought about psychological issues and trauma. Throughout earlier years, the foster care system adjusted their program according to the rules and regulations established to provide for the needs of children. However, problems keep appearing elsewhere. These children endure the brunt of every new philosophy in behavioral health management. Often, the biological parents will be left out of the solution. The foster care system develops services to train foster families in caring for foster children and behavioral issues. For some reason, the foster care system believes improvement simpler to reform the children and makes a trivial attempt of the reformation with family. The foster care system needs to try to achieve bonds within the biological family instead of the sole reliability on removal of children to be an adequate answer. The foster care system’s obligation should be to develop a training system for the rehabilitation of families and offer support to achieve the greatest outcome in child rearing. Foster care needs to adapt to supporting families emotionally,

In the United States 21% of all children are living below the federal poverty line. 2.9 million cases of child abuse and neglect are reported every year in the United States. 428,000 children are in the foster care system, and 107,918 foster children are waiting to be adopted. The foster care system is temporary out of home care for neglected, abused and impoverish children under 18. While the foster care system has all positive ideas, they fall short in providing certain needs for these children. Kids not only in America but all over the world that are living in poverty, are abused, neglected, and have an unstable home life. Nobody wants to live a life like that, especially not a child. They don’t know how to support themselves on their own, they need a family and a guardian that will take care of them, support, and love them.

60 percent of kids who age out of foster care are dead, homeless, or in jail within a year. There needs to be more focus on the foster care system and child homelessness. Children should not be living on the streets, they need a home and a loving family so that they can grow up and live a stable, independent life.

I do not generally do a lot of arguing or debating unless it is with my brother, which in that case, I argue a lot. Even then, I do not argue unless I know that I am correct or that it is something that I am really passionate about. One thing that I am passionate about though is the foster care system and what happens to it. The foster care system has been going through a big debate on whether or not it should be completely eliminated and replaced or if it needs a strong reform. The side of the argument that I would like to be on is the side where people are fighting for reform in the system. Foster care is one of the many things that is broken in this world, but that does not mean that it cannot be fixed.

The social work profession and my life experiences have taught me that we all at one point of our lives have been in the position of asking for help. For some people asking for help may be an effortless task, but for others, asking for help may involve challenging cultural and family values. This paper will focus on a period in my life when asking for help signified a huge personal challenge, as I was taught growing up that I should keep my personal problems to myself and not involve third parties.

In the afterschool program, there would be recurring instances of disruptive behaviors and we would observe that the behavior had a direct connect to the trauma the child had gone through. A violent child witnesses violence as a norm and may use that to communicate anger or frustration where on the other hand, a child that has not undergone trauma expresses those same feelings in a positive and more productive way. Understanding experiences that the child has, and how this in turn impacts how they responds to different situations creates an awareness of how to best support

I believe that kids in foster homes should be treated and taking care of superior, because they need to treat them like they're own children.They wouldn’t treat their own blood children like that. If they are going to treat them like that then why have the foster kids. They have been through enough. The foster children have no control of what happens to them. Even if foster parents had their own child I highly doubt they would treat their kids like they would treat foster children. The parents are making the foster kids feel less than. That most foster kids have experience child abuse or either chronic medical problems.

In my opinion, babysitting is very beneficial to pretty much anyone. I recommend that everyone try babysitting at least once in their lifetime, because of all the rewards you can get from it. First, usually for babysitting, you are presented with payment for your services. The more children you have and the longer you babysit usually ties into the more money you will receive. Second, babysitting can teach you valuable life lessons. It can prepare you for children of your own, get you ready for a career in childcare or child development, and overall, it’s loads of fun.

Imagine a world where children are taken from their home. Imagine a world where kids are apprehensive to come home. Imagine a world where a child becomes a servant in their own household, and aren’t allowed to focus on schoolwork. Imagine a world where children are separated from their siblings, possibly their only family. Imagine getting hit, multiple times, because you didn’t do your nail grinding tasks. This is the known world that may exist if we don’t worry about the dangers of the foster care system. People should be more concerned about these dangers, such as, the child abuse that occurs and how the government money is being used in the paid foster homes.

"Every child deserves to know the love of a forever family. Every family deserves the chance to thrive." When people hear about foster care they assume the kids there are just broken kids that have alcoholic parents, or drug addicts, parents ,and bad kids who get thrown into the system; In reality kids you get into the foster care system are usually kids who do have parents that are alcoholics or have drug addictions parents but also kids who been abused or neglect or even sexually harassed by their own parents. As a society we need to try and help make the foster care system a place where children can feel safe and secure and not be scared to be themselves, help lift back the children's confidence.

There are times when you need to get away from the house for vacations or for work, and there is no one to take care of the kids.

Babysitters need to be picked carefully, since they will be in charge of keeping your baby safe and secure while you are gone. Babysitters come from all kinds of backgrounds, race, religions, and ages. This can make it hard to choose a babysitter if you can't ask a friend to recommend one.
