I have gained that impression from your TV programs at times, but had no idea if it was so.
Actually, people doing it for reasons of unresolved trauma and such (which certainly IS true of many foster parents I have to work with) would arguably be worse than doing it for money, if the money people do it compassionately and competently.
It'll be your unresolved trauma foster parents who end up killing and maiming, on the whole, I would guess...just as it is with natural parents.
