Abstract
The recent history of custody conflicts between foster and birth parents in the Pennsylvania courts is reviewed in this article. The author traces the development of law relating to foster care and examines conflicts between the legal system and child welfare services. He does not foresee these conflicts as being resolved unless attitudes in the courts toward child welfare agencies are changed significantly.Keywords
