Dh and i are discussing this more in depth now. I am very keen to foster. My kids are grown up - one has left home (he has SN and is 21) and my youngest is 16. This is something i always thought we would do - i myself was at times a "looked after child" and i feel we could offer stability to other children in need. We have been married 22 years, both work full time but i have the option of flexible working.
I am not remotely interested in the money and we would opt for fostering through the local authority. My house is full of waifs and strays anyway....
what do we need to know? i was thinking short term placements for children 0 - 11.....
where do we go from here to find out more?
thanks
