Final verdict
Parents are supposed to be there to take care of you, give you love and all the attention you need. But when the parents have an addiction living with them is not healthy for the child. Taking a child away from an unhealthy living situation is often times the best for everyone. Foster parents are people who love children and are willing to make overnight life changes to provide a better future for children who are taken out of their homes. As a judge I would rule to keep the child with the foster parents.
There are many reasons as to why I would rule to keep the child with the foster parents. For one the parents were irresponsible and the child was in danger when he was with them. The parents may be rehabilitated but there is always a chance that they can relapse. Raising a child can cause a lot of stress and these parents haven’t dealt with it for ten years. The stress of all the changes that they will have to make may cause them to relapse and in return cause danger to the child. The boy may get neglected because the parents don’t know how to handle the stress. There will be a lot of stress added because the parents will have to learn to live with a child. They will have to learn what he likes and what he doesn’t. They will have to be very patient with the boy because he will take some time getting used to his parents. And all this could really cause stress on the parents and may cause them to relapse. Another reason why I would rule the boy to stay with his foster parents is because, the child for the last ten years has known them as his parents. …show more content…
The child was taken out of his home as an infant and put in a home with strangers. Not only did the boy’s life change but so did the foster parents. Overnight they were given a child to raise not knowing for how long they would have him. The parents raised the boy as their own child and consider him one of their own as so does the child considers them as parents. The child now has a stable home and a stable life taking him away from this stability may cause him to rebel and feel anger as to why he was taken away from what he considers his parents’ home. Taking the child away from the foster parents not only will affect the child but also the parents as they are losing a child. This boy may not be their blood but they have raised him as one of their own. Taking him away not only affects them but everyone around them who has seen the boy grow. There are many risks that come with returning the child to his biological parents. For one, the parents and the child will most definitely need counseling in order to make the transition smoothly. There is a risk that the child may fall into depression. Taking him away from who he considered his parents, changing schools, not being in a comfortable environment may cause the boy to shut out his biological parents. The child may start to rebel and the parents may let him get away
