Can we review whether kids in state care are allowed to

The basic idea of restricted contact between family members
doesn't make sense to me except in the most horrible cases.

Some of the foster care providers with large numbers
of kids do sound a lot like the old "orphanages".

What's really incredible is that CPS agencies create
"orphans of the living" by removing kids for reasons
as piddly as "clutter" in order to self justify and
feed their allied industries of foster care and
social services contractors.

I have often heard foster care called foster incarceration.

My cheapo dictionary defines incarceration as jail.

Is there some other definition of incarceration that
does NOT apply to foster care?
