Foster children and wards

There has been some confusion about the relationship code for foster children.

If the manuscript says the relationship is foster child, please use relationship code 5 for non-relatives. Do not confuse these children with those who are adopted. An adopted child should be relationship code 2.

Foster children are not the legal children of the parents. The situation is the same for wards. If the manuscript says the relationship is ward, please use relationship code 5.

Any questions?
