I can tell you that if they would not pay for childcare while I was working, I would not be able to care for that child. You said in Georgia that some SW's make "exceptions" for working foster parents? So how would they afford to pay for daycare if they were working? Here in Washington they don't pay for the current month of care until the following month. I can tell you I have never been denied childcare from DCFS so I could work, and if I were to, they might have to find alternative care for the child that it was being denied on. You know, full-time childcare is more expensive than a basic subsidy check for the caregiver. Now who could afford that?
