Should they be able to do this based on the fact that the state pays a stipend to foster parents?

Yes, keep those irresponsible smoking parents away and let's give these children to the types who'd beat them and lock them naked in closets

They better work on that whole 'fire-arms' thingy first before they tell Texans to stop smoking in their homes...

Will they continue to support a ban on foster children in same sex couple households?
Obviously the state believes they have a compelling interest to protect children from harmful influences.

So if the butt is a clove cigarette, violation yes/no?
How about just the roach left over from a nice fat marijuana joint, violation yes/no?
Banana peel cigarette, violation yes/no?
How about a dried grape vine, violation yes/no?
American indian halucinagenic herbs, violation yes/no?
Nope, only tobacco. Want to make a million bucks? Breed a plant close enough to tobacco to taste identical when burned but far enough that any plant expert would class it as a different species (or even genis).

"If we were doing a monitoring visit and we came out and found that there were cigarette butts in the ash try, that would mean that somebody was smoking in the house, and that would be a violation."

When they're done with the people who smoke, they'll start on the people who eat Twinkies, and end with a humorless society free of any socialization or human interaction.
Then, the younger generations will start eating the older generations for fun, and society will be done.

Nothing like reducing their potential pool for Foster Parents. I guess they feel the greater good is served by ensuring that children do not get the care and upbringing in a home. Warehousing is much preferred.

Foster kids are going to be out of luck. I bet that the "government" that made up this rule will rue the day they extended their "rules" in to private homes! That's fine. Those "government" freaks can take all the foster kids!

I was joking with a friend the other day and we were discussing child abuse and he mentioned homosexual molestation. I said that no, that was man-boy love and perfectly acceptable, but if you're smoking while diddling the little guy, now THAT's child abuse.</p>
