The articles and video I have added above look at the broken foster care system in the United states. The video and the articles look specifically at how the system is over ran and there are more clients than there are caseworkers. The video specifically shows how the little girl in the video only sees her caseworker when she is moving again until someone did not give up on her. In the video and the articles they take on sociological perspective in a way that looking at how the factor of no family institution effects the other parts of the individuals life and how when one fails the other start to follow. I have chosen the popular media where the perspective taken is that of a the children in the system, which could make the perspective different if the caseworkers were talking. Even know the problem is being talked about the public is keeping their stigmas but not helping make a change.
