Hello. You did not inform the survey to which the question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

The preservation of the family promotes child safety, establishing an environment in which the child can trust and feel welcomed. This promotes a strong well-being and comfort, leaving the child more confident and happy to be with her/his family. This factor may not be presented in a foster care situation, as the child is subjected to living with a family that is not hers/his. This, in addition to causing insecurity to the child, can cause this family to show negative and abusive behaviors towards children who are not part of this environment. In this case, for foster care to be beneficial, it is necessary to have a strong supervision of social assistance in relation to the treatment that the child is receiving. This inspection is one of the major failures of social assistance in most of the country, which contributes to the conclusion that this type of assistance is malefic. In this case, it is preferable that family preservation is chosen more often, for the welfare and safety of the child, this approach should only be discarded if absolutely necessary.
