Afternoon, guys. Coming up: Sir Chris Hoy and the Queen join forces | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
to get the Commonwealth Games ball The passenger forced to land a plane | :00:14. | :00:20. | |
after the pilot collapsed. Stay First, deciding when to leave home | :00:20. | :00:27. | |
might seem like a long way off but imagine being told you had to go | :00:27. | :00:33. | |
Thousands of foster children in England are currently given no | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
option but to go it alone once they reach 18. Leading charities say | :00:36. | :00:40. | |
option but to go it alone once they age should be raised to 21 to give | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
them a better chance in life. And today that change in the law is | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
being debated in the House of Lords. There are many challenges to life as | :00:47. | :00:51. | |
a foster kid. And one of the biggest is knowing you might have to fend | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
for yourself as soon as you're is knowing you might have to fend | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
That's when the money foster parents get for looking after young people | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
runs out. Charities say changing the law so that age is 21 would make a | :01:00. | :01:08. | |
their foster parents after 18 were twice as likely to stay in education | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
voluntary changes with many councils twice as likely to stay in education | :01:10. | :01:23. | |
extra £2.7 million a year. The doing that officially would cost an | :01:23. | :01:47. | |
extra £2.7 million a year. The two. You were forced to leave your | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
extra £2.7 million a year. The foster parents at 18. What was that | :01:49. | :01:56. | |
like? It was tough. I had just got into university and I was excited | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
about it, but there was an element of family missing. Some people do | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
not have the opportunity to go to university, 18 is young. Most people | :02:06. | :02:12. | |
are not able to live by themselves that such a young age. Do you think | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
the law should be changed to make sure foster kids can stay with their | :02:16. | :02:22. | |
parents until they're 21? Yes. It would have made life at university a | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
lot easier. I would have had people that I could have spoken to, which | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
is what most people that age are looking for. You have obviously | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
