My niece and her husband adopted 3 fosters. A brother and sister was their 2nd addition. Courtney wasn't able to conceive but God blessed them with a premie baby girl 2 years after last adoption and now she is expecting another biological baby in June! God has been blessing this family so much. Please pray for Courtney for her pregnancy has been high risk this time also and there was a close call last month.

We fostered a brother and sister ages 5 and 6 for a year; then adoptive status for one year…. Then the next year final adoption. We went from 10 years marriage and childless to both starting kindergarten 3 months later. My son had severe burns on his head requiring multiple more surgeries. But they allowed him to stay on state insurance to cover his surgeries.

My Aunt and Uncle fostered over 75 children over 25 years. They were not native Americans but was certified by the tribe because in their area there wasn’t enough people to handle the number of people to place the children. BTW they ended up adopting 10 of them🎉

Thank you for sharing your foster care info with others. It was very informative. Our family had foster children for years. Gary is right on with you need to do it for the right reason because you won't get rich. Children need love, food & a stable home. I personally found the hardest part of fostering was reaching the goal of the child returning to their natural home & my missing the child/children.❤❤❤❤
@cindiegrimm59838 ай бұрын
Those kids couldn't be in better hands. I had an Aunt and Uncle that fostered many, many years ago. I know they had one child for almost 4 years when it was returned to the biological family. There is heartbreak involved in getting attached to these children and them to you and then being removed. Even though that is the goal, it's not easy. It takes very special people to do what you do. God Bless you and the kids, ALL of them.

My sister and her husband fostered three girls. They had three biological children and an adopted daughter who they adopted because a family did not want her after the adoption. They ended up adopting their three foster girls who are all married now with their own children. It has never been easy, God called them. The girls are beautiful wives and moms now after all they went through bringing them up as children. Blessings to you

My daughter worked for Family Services in Missouri after she graduated college. It lasted about a heartbeat. They were told to do whatever they could to place kids in state custody. The more kids they had in foster care, the more funds they received. They were told to make false hotline calls to get into a home if they didn’t have a valid reason. They were allowed to lie about the parents in their reports and even have the foster parents file fake hotline reports to extend investigations and to coach kids what to say. The more they could get the kids to say against the parents, the better. My daughter was raised better than to do things her supervisor told her to do. If a parent made a caseworker mad, they made it worse on the parents. My daughter couldn’t do it and quit. She went back to college and got her degree in Criminal Justice and became a deputy sheriff, just like her daddy was. You could put a hot branding iron on the bottom of her feet and she wouldn’t lie. I hope the Cherokee Nation system is more honest with their family services.

It’s so very rewarding. I agree if your called answer the call. I used to train foster parents to become foster care. I always took my foster kids with me because this could be their only chance to do traveling. Our County handles the foster care. A lot of people everywhere say it’s a money maker. I did it for 15 years. I never MADE money. lol I took littles and there was baby food, formula and diapers. Plus clothes. We never came out even lol. But it was all so WORTH it.

While I can't foster I appreciate those who do. I have had some on my school bus . It depends on the kid as to how well they do. The last one had some major problems but I didn't treat him any different, my aid did her best to help him and we didn't have him long before he was moved again. I still pray for him, as I do for all my kids, and hope him the best.

Things don't seem to work this way any more but I will tell you a funny foster family story worth a Grizwald movie. A young couple in thier 20's formally married thier 2 years with no children of thier own got cleared for thier first foster placement. They left few boundaries on thier forms except a belief that sibling groups should remain together as much as possible. Well ... one dark o'clock of a week night a State trooper rang thier door bell with a couple of kids on thier front porch as a second car rolled up; more kids of course. A sibling group of 6 with assorted blood relations sat in the house with a couple of troopers waiting for an intake type case worker to arrive. The case worker came with some additional forms, quickly walked through the house, like a western movie in which someone is deputized authorized them for emergency in-take - if they would take all 6 right then and there. The kids were all sitting in the house between the living room and kitchen; troopers still in the living room. Long story short, the state was anxious for this couple to keep the kids together in thier home despite scattered toys when they came to visit and the little dramas and incidents that seemed to happen more often when they were on-site or in-home. Again, worth a Grizwald movie at times during which things come out pretty well in the end.

However, as a retired primary nurse I did see some improvement in the 2 surrounding states.

I could only do it for a few years as I was a single working mother and could not afford to pay for a babysitter as the children I cared for were not school age. My mother did child care when I worked until her health was not able to care for children. I enjoyed it and growing up with other children.

How wonderful that you are fostering. It's so needed. I grew up in a fostering family,. Both grandparents fostered. My paternal grandparents had a total of 7 children, the last 2 came when they were 2 and 6 and stayed with them through graduation. They were mostly Menominee Indian, placed by the state. My grandparents lived on a farm down the road from our dairy farm so it was like having built in brothers. My maternal grandparents lived 8 miles away in town and had more of a receiving home for primarily girls although they did take in young boys, mostly brothers of the girls. That grandmother was a nurses aide in Labor and Delivery and often got babies and unwed mothers during their pregnancy and for a month or so after delivery to help teach them how to care for a baby. They also fostered Menominee Indian children through the county. One baby was placed with them for failure to thrive. She was 6 months old and less than 10#, The state wanted her mom to sign her off for adoption. She was an alcoholic and lost her older children as well. She agreed only on the condition that my grandparents were the ones to adopt her. The tribes were just starting to step in at that time, refusing to allow caucasian's to adopt American Indians. My grandparents were different than most and encouraged family relationships with their foster children's birth families when possible. So, in their 40's and over the age for adoption at the time, they became parents of a baby girl. My aunt is 4 years younger than I am. They had over 100 children by the time they retired from fostering. As a kid, I thought it was great as I had built in playmates. My parents fostered a teen boy early in their marriage. They tried, but ultimately stopped fostering him due to behavior and drinking issues and I was a toddler at the time. So, growing up, foster kids were just a normal part of my life. I saw the good, bad and the ugly and just learned to love and appreciate my family more and more. My father just passed away a week and a half ago at age 95 and my mother just got a diagnosis of stage 4 pancreatic cancer on Tuesday. They are saying maybe 6 months to live. They would've been celebrating their 70th anniversary in 2 weeks. They know where they are going. The morning my dad passed, Mom held him, told him how much she loved him and that she would be following him home shortly. Keep on encouraging foster care. It is so needed.

Just remember you might be ready to take them but they are not that excited to be taken from their home. It can be a good experience. We were surprised with our first kids that they were not happy to leave their parents. We were in northern California. Way north. We did it for 10 years. We adopted to boys that were siblings. One loves us. The younger went in the Army and after the first year he stopped getting intouch with us. It can be a real heart break. We are in TX now and did it for almost one year. We did boys. One of the older boys did sexual things to one of the other boys so they took all of the good boys and left us with the problem boy. They had a harder time trying to place him. When it was settled we did adopt one of the boys. After that we were done. Good luck and have a great experience

We did fostercare for my husband's grandson. It was his eldest daughters son. I loved my grandson. His mother was the problem. She wouldn't allow her son to see the bio family. It was hard. But there were more blessings than trouble from the mother of the child. We had him for three years. I still have a connection with the child. But the mother is still hard to deal with her.
