Do you think there should be a reconsideration about the foster care system in the Untied States?

Foster care aims to protect children in harmful situations. Yet, as of 2014, the number of children entering and exiting foster care, within the span of 1 month to 5+ years, was 517,000. Not to mention only 50% of them having a reunification case plan.

Another factor in this that was making me wonder is abuse. In foster care is exposed to different types of abuse than what they would in a biological home.

By this I mean, If they were taken for neglect, they are now open to sexual, physical, emotion or even child against child. Note; i know this isn’t for all cases, but it is a problem.

I mean for this to be opinions based on your knowledge and such.
thanks.
