Foster homes should not be keeping anything that belongs to the child. I agree in placing the childs name on the quilt..but make it noticable. Hopefully that would keep anyone from keeping a childs belongings .
My husband was a foster child and his foster family kept his Christmas presents. It was a long time ago but he remembers it clearly. Esp the big red fire engine he lost.

I agree with you totally Alice. I assume those chidren don't have a lot of belonging to begin with but they definitely should be allowed to keep the few things they do have and treasure. A quilt specificially should be allowed for a foster child to keep and treasure as it could very well be their greatest treasure during a very tough time in their lives.
