Cal. Fam. Code § 7952 — FOSTER CARE PLACEMENT CONSIDERATIONS is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
A minor 10 years of age or older being considered for placement in a foster home has the right to make a brief statement to the court making a decision on placement. The court may disregard any preferences expressed by the minor. The minor’s right to make a statement is not limited to the initial placement, but continues for any proceedings concerning continued placement or a decision to return to parental custody.
