Children in foster care are minors who cannot live with their biological families due to various reasons, such as abuse, neglect, or parental issues. These children are placed in temporary homes, known as foster homes, where they receive care and support from foster parents until they can safely return to their families or be adopted. The foster care system aims to provide a stable and nurturing environment for these children. Social workers and child welfare agencies oversee their placement and well-being, ensuring that their physical, emotional, and educational needs are met during this challenging time.
