You do not get paid for being a foster parent you get reimbursed for child's expenses and they also receive a medical card so there is no medical bills that the family incurs. Getting paid for being a foster parent is the give and take relationship you achieve with your child. In some states, foster parents are in fact paid a perdiem for each child. An average in Texas is $30 per day per child. This is meant to cover the child's expenses (other than medical) but it isn't reimbursed. It's paid to the foster family and they are expected to provide for the child.

The children can still see their parents and people they met at their foster home.
