Please can you give me a no-frills answer as to how fostering affects your life - both the positives and the negatives?
I have worked in an office for the past 10 years, my role will become redundant next summer. I really do not want to go in to another office role and would like something completely different to do.
I am 40, privately rent, live with my partner of 5 years and have a 9 year old son.
I am considering whether I would be suitable to be a foster carer and the impact that this would have on our lives. It is something that I have thought about for a few years and the redundancy is forcing my hand to make future decisions so I would really appreciate any comments that you could offer as to how you have found fostering.
