Proceeding contribution from Sharon Hodgson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 October 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Young People in Care.
Young People in Care
My right hon. Friend is absolutely correct to say that children in care are our responsibility, and that we cannot continue to fail them. When children are in care, society is their parent. Does my right hon. Friend agree that, as good parents, giving children in care treats or rewards to aspire to good behaviour or good grades, as we do with our own children, may go a small way towards preventing them from turning to petty crime to obtain desirable items that our own children, and their peers, take for granted?
