A Relative Foster Family as an Educational Environment

Summary/Abstract: As part of the overall care system of a child deprived of natural family functioning properly, we can distinguish both family and institutional forms of foster care. Placement of a child in a foster environment is an alternative in a situation where there is no possibility to provide the child a proper care of the biological family. The foster family plays an essential role in the child's upbringing during completion of numerous tasks and functions. In accordance with existing legal regulations, responsibilities of the foster family related to the child are taken over by the closest members of the child's family - grandparents or siblings. What is a character of the relative foster family and what problems they most frequently experience in the upbringing process of the child − these are the basic issues described in the prepared paper.
