drug abuse are correctable problems.
drug addiction is a disease and cannot be cured, however, one can stay clean off drugs. but relapse does happen.
How long do we keep a child in the system if a parent consitintly relapses?
There are alot of drug addicts that stay 'clean' but the majority doesnt. They have a disease.
But they usually dont remove children due to poverty. I know many families living in shelters and the state wouldnt take these children away.
i really dont know many children that were taken away due to poverty, unless of course the mom couldnt feed the children, couldnt take the children to the doctor, etc..but that would be considered neglect..and very different.
