Foster care is the best choice for accommodation if there is separation from the biological family, which can be found out from many researches. Foster family will accept the child as their member and provide him with everything he needs and the utmost understanding, warmth, love and support until the institution can provide it. The primary goal of foster care is to provide the child with everything he needs until the separation problem is not solved, if there is deprivation of parental care, the final decision should be adoption, and at the earliest age of the child. The foster parent cannot act alone, he has the help of his family, professionals, associonates and if it is necessary the health profession. It is very important for the educator of the adopter and his family to be able to help the child in the adequate way.
