FOSTER-PARENTS
Sir,-May I endorse your correspondent’s statement that foster-parents do not care for children in order to augment the family income. When we had a four-month-old baby, the correct diet for him up to the age of six months was published, .and the cost, at the ruling prices then, was 12/6 weekly. The State payment is 15/- weekly, so this speaks for itself. The work is done for love.
CHILD-LOVER
