Many first time foster parents spend months in anticipation, getting the room prepared awaiting the arrival of their first child in foster care.
It’s important to remember, though, that the child who is entering your home is going through crisis. We shouldn’t expect gratitude or excitement, instead focus on matching their tone, validating their experiences, and offering as much choice and control as possible.
As always I welcome your comments below. How do you support kids in the initial moments and days? How do you create a welcoming bedroom for kids?
Looking for more? I offer 1:1 DM support (plus checklists and templates) on Patreon for as little as $1. / fosterparenting
