1. What are the differences between being a biological parent, an adoptive parent, and a foster parent?
2. What financial needs are parents obligated to provide and which are optional?
3. What other needs might a child have that a parent is expected to provide?
4. What are the qualities of a nurturing parent?
Answers:
1) Biological parents actually bring forth the offspring or give birth to it. Adoption parents take full responsibility of raising a child (new permanent parent). Foster parents are assigned by the state to kids that need parental care (just temporary).
2) The financial needs that parents are obligated to provide are food, shelter, clothing, and health care. Optional things would be toys, electronics, vacations, and other luxuries.
3) Other needs that a parent is expected to provide for their child would be emotional needs and educational needs.
4) The qualities of a nurturing parent would be looking at things from their child’s point of view, learning your child’s personality and interest, and creating a bond with your child that will last.
