I would like to ask some follow up questions after this post, but think it is best to put it in a separate thread.
6. I am strongly considering being a foster parent.
I have been thinking about this too, sometimes. We have no children ourselves. Being a permanent foster parent would have quite an impact on our life and I don't think I would want to do this for 10 years in a row.
I have understood that you can be a temporary foster parents, for giving children a short time shelter, or offering a child a long term/permanent residence. I guess children would behave a bit awkward when being moved from one short time foster parent to the next and they probably wouldn't bond. Still, offering a place for 1-some years would be the best option for my situation, I guess.
Does anyone of you have experiences you want to share?
