People make the choice to become foster parents for different reasons. I’d like to share my own story! Fostering is not a decision to be made lightly. Raising kids in general is tough! Raising someone else’s kids who have suffered trauma, have been ripped from their home with little more than the clothes on their back, and battling possible physical, mental, and/or emotional distress because of it all is absolutely hard! With each placement, there are new or different challenges to face. But, I knew my husband and I could offer a safe, stable, loving home to a kid(s) in need.
