| There still remains in the Hebrides, though it is passing fast away, the custom of fosterage. |
| Instead of adoption, the national legislation provides for fosterage and hosting. |
| It has therefore been replaced in those enactments by fosterage and hosting. |
| There was fosterage for affection, for payment and for a literary education. |
| The host family is required to satisfy conditions similar to those for fosterage, in which connection decision No. 545 of 1985 was adopted. |
| The ties created by fosterage were nearly as close and as binding on children as those of blood. |
