Whose Child Is This?: When Parents Disappear, What Happens to the Children?
When children are abandoned by death, divorce, dissertation or disasters, social service organizations explore the options that are available for their permanent care. The first option is restoring the family by counseling and resource development
and if that is not possible, the available of other family members is investigated. If that is not possible, then the social workers study the adoption applicants they have to find a suitable family. This may take some time, so the children will be placed in the care of trained, caring foster parents pending their adoption. The options which are opened to abandoned children are foster care, adoption, guardianship and other custom-fit solutions. In recent years, adoption organizations have developed creative methods of recruiting adoptive and foster parents for handicapped, minority children, and adolescents. These methods are described in details. The motto for those who work with abandoned children is "No child is left behind."
