fosterage
Fosterage, the practice of a family bringing up a child not their own, differs from adoption in that the child's parents, not the foster-parents, remain the acknowledged parents. In many modern western societies foster care can be organised by the state to care for children with troubled family backgrounds, usually on a temporary basis. In many pre-modern societies fosterage was a form of patronage, whereby influential families cemented political relationships by bringing up each other's children, similar to arranged marriages, also based on dynastic or alliance calculations. This practice was once common in Ireland, Wales, and Scotland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Fosterage )〕 ==Fosterage in the Hebrides== In his ''A Journey to the Western Isles of Scotland'' (1775), writer Samuel Johnson described the fosterage custom as he saw it practised.〔''A Journey to the Western Isles of Scotland'' by Samuel Johnson. 1775 edition.
