Probably the daycare subsidy will be what impacts people the most. I know a lot of foster parents who just couldn't afford the daycare especially if there is a sibling group. I don't really see how the foster care system can even stay in tact, that is have any children in foster care if the proposed changes go through. We are between placements right now and we can work around this for the most part by just taking one child, but it sounds as if the children will all have to be sent home, or to biological families who can financially afford it. The cuts they are talking about would essentially shut down foster care. I assume they would quit bringing children into care, I don't know really what else they can do if this budget goes through.
