We are fairly new to the entire topic of fostering and adoption. Up until now, we've only vaguely heard reports in the news about foster care situations. So, please, without meaning to offend any of the wonderful, dedicated foster parents out there...how is it that there are so many bad foster care situations were the children are abused further? To me, this is worse than children being in orphanages.

The process we are looking at for international... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (susanmward) http://olderchildadoption.yuku.com/topic/1782 Fri, 10 Jun 2005 09:00:30 GMT http://olderchildadoption.yuku.com/topic/1785/t/Alomost-done-with-approval.html feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) http://olderchildadoption.yuku.com/topic/1785 Tue, 16 Nov 2004 07:36:29 GMT http://olderchildadoption.yuku.com/topic/1757/t/I-got-the-quot-I-m-being-bad-so-you-ll-send-me-back.html : --> I KNOW this is normal, but I HATE it!

We had made arrangements to have FD go to another foster home temporarily. I went upstairs to pack her stuff, and in the process, discovered drug paraphenalia.

Both DH and I are fed up with FD's lies and "con man" mentality. She came by both behaviors honestly, after growing up way too fast with a dysfunctional b-mom and absent b-dad. She is a streetwise 15 y-o, going on 30. She has some good qualities, and we were hopeful that she would work out.
