Erica_Lee Noticed an Influx Of abandoned Children in the Park. 99.9% of All children in the park are homeless and without parents. Having a kind heart Erica built A Orphanage. She bought and built on over 100,000 Acers of land in a previously undeveloped part of the park. building a large 20,000 bedroom, 1,200 bath building with 10 kitchens, 20 living rooms, 15 great dinning halls, 50 playrooms; complete with arcade games, pool table, toys computers and other fun things. the orphanage also has 2 convenient stores in case children are hungry in between meal times. it has water park sized pool, many gardens and a school.
Erica cares for every one of them.The first option for a children is to see if they can be reunited with their biological or extended family. Often circumstances will have changed since the separation. If that is not possible, domestic adoption or long term fostering are considered. Older children may be supported to independence. Disabled children may need small family type homes where their needs can be catered for.
~ About Orphanages And There History ~
Duke University. Their researchers have shown that institutional care in America in the 20th century produced the same health, emotional, intellectual, mental, and physical outcomes as care by relatives, and better than care in the homes of strangers. One explanation for this is the prevalence of permanent temporary foster care. This is the name for a long string of short stays with different foster care families. Permanent temporary foster care is highly disruptive to the child and prevents the child from developing a sense of security or belonging. Placement in the home of a relative maintains and usually improves the child's connection to family members. Orphanages are an incredibly expensive option, up to six times more expensive than supporting a birth family and three times more expensive than foster care.
**History**
The first orphanages, called "orphanotrophia", were founded by the Catholic Church in the 1st century amid various alternative means of orphan support. Jewish law, for instance, prescribed care for the widow and the orphan, and Athenian law supported all orphans of those killed in military service until the age of eighteen. Plato (Laws, 927) says: "Orphans should be placed under the care of public guardians. Men should have a fear of the loneliness of orphans and of the souls of their departed parents. A man should love the unfortunate orphan of whom he is guardian as if he were his own child. He should be as careful and as diligent in the management of the orphan's property as of his own or even more careful still." The care of orphans was referred to bishops and, during the Middle Ages, to monasteries. Many orphanages practiced some form of "binding-out" in which children, as soon as they were old enough, were given as apprentices to households. This would ensure their support and their learning an occupation.
Such practices are assumed to be quite rare in the modern Western world, thanks to improved social security such as the Social Security Act which allowed Aid to Dependent Children (ADC) to be passed. This marked a change in social attitudes. This lack of social security and failure to develop alternative ways to support vulnerable families is the key reason that orphanages remain in many other countries.
The deinstitutionalisation programme sped up in the 1950s, after a series of scandals involving the coercion of birth parents and abuse of orphans (notably at Georgia Tann's Tennessee Children's Home Society), the United States and other countries have moved to de-institutionalize the care of vulnerable children—that is, close down orphanages in favor of foster care and accelerated adoption. Moreover, as it is no longer common for birth parents in Western countries to give up their children, and as far fewer people die of diseases or violence while their children are still young, the need to operate large orphanages has decreased.
Major charities are increasingly focusing their efforts on the re-integration of orphans in order to keep them with their parents or extended family and communities. Orphanages are no longer common in the European community, and Romania in particular has struggled to reduce the visibility of its children's institutions to meet conditions of its entry into the European Union. In the United States, the first orphanage was in New Orleans—then French Territory—in 1727—by the Ursulines, a women's order of the Catholic Church that spun off the work of St. Vincent DePaul, whose fame for the care of orphans is unparalleled in history. The largest remaining orphanage is the Bethesda Orphanage, founded in 1740 by George Whitefield, following the model the Catholic Church had used for more than a thousand years.
~Orphanages in popular culture~
In many works of fiction (notably Oliver Twist and Annie), the administrators of orphanages are depicted as cruel monsters. It is true that some orphanages are funded on a per child basis and there can be attempts made to encourage children from poor families to enter the orphanage which will provide food, clothing and an education but often lack the individual love required for full cognitive development. But Erica has made shure that she gives attention to each child. and that they are loved and well cared for.
~Orphanage Scams~
Visitors to developing countries can be taken in by orphanage scams, these can include orphanages created for the day or orphanages as a front to get foreigners to pay school fees of orphanage director's extended families. Alternatively the children whose upkeep is being funded by foreigners may be sent to work, not to school, the exact opposite of what the donor is expecting. The worst even sell children. In Cambodia some are bought from their parents for very little and passed on to westerners who pay a large fee so they can adopt them. This also happens in China. In Nepal, orphanages can be used as a way to remove a child from their parents before placing them for adoption overseas which is equally lucrative to the owners who will receive a number or official and unofficial payments and 'donations'. In other countries such as Indonesia orphanages are run as businesses which will attract donations and make the owners rich, often the conditions orphans are kept in will be deliberately be poor to attract more donations.
Erica would never do such a thing and has gone through lengths to show the orphanage as a honest and true none profit orphanage . allowing none appointment walk in parents to just come in. none cash donations so that the money can be 100% tract. postings of her the orphanage's bills with bank print out of the balance in the account. and last but not least all adoptions are 100% Free of any charges and fees.
