  Case: Fostering Students
Mrs. Appleby has a student in her class that was recently taken from his parents. The student is very attached to her and makes comments about wishing he was her child and could go home with her. The school counselor asked if she would be willing to go through foster parent classes because of the attachment the child has to her. What do you think she should do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I believe it is up to the teacher if that is something she can do.

Comments: This is not what i would do. The teacher needs to check first with the law and see if it is appropriate and if she can provide and provide the best life for the child.

Comments: I feel like there are many hurdles in this situation and there are especially with the legalities of it. If she have to opportunity to do so, it can be a very positive placement for the child but I feel like the school system will give her a hard time over this.
