That's an honorable position EXCEPT for the fact they did a horrid job of raising their own. If they were actually good parents this wouldn't be even a story and their own child would be raising the grandchildren. There big mistake was allowing the children to even be put in the system and they have no one to blame but themselves for this situation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-42486768458815032622016-09-19T14:22:00.215-04:002016-09-19T14:22:00.215-04:00Feel bad for him, but this brings up something I t...Feel bad for him, but this brings up something I think is BS. Why should a grandparent be able to become a "foster parent" for their own grandchildren, thus allowing them to be paid by the state for homing the foster children, and the children are on full benefits through the state. If my child has a problem with his kid, I take them in, I may try to get the health benefits, but if I can afford it, I will care for them, because that's what family does. Why can these people do this. It promotes young people having children, just to give them up to their parents. Being as many of them are under 18 when they start, you do the math as to how much some of these people get from the state and federal government. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
