I'm not a foster parent at all and have had nothing to do with this world but yesterday I met the most amazing foster parents and I am still awe struck at what an amazing job they (and you all) do. They currently have a little boy - I won't say much but they and he have been royally mucked about by courts and bio parents. He is the most gorgeous little chap, who is treated badly during access visits and yet these foster parents remain optimistic and strong that they can be a strong influence in his life. I was close to tears hearing about the hoops they've jumped through and everything their little boy had experienced in his young life.
Wishing all of you, and them, hope, strength and endurance, you are doing something life changing against the odds.
