I'd want to look more closer towards the Soviet and all other socialist state systems. If I recall, Anna Louise Strong's books, specifically 'this Soviet world', have sections detailing the treatment of orphans in the post-revolutionary war period. I remember being rather impressed with what I read at the time. I also can think whatever adjustments I'd personally make would include working on destigmatizing the negative perception of being an orphan or a foster child among a plethora of other subjects that would need to be addressed.
Insofar as I'm concerned no child should be subject to abuse or alienation regardless of the circumstances of their birth or life.
