Why I Want to Become a Foster Parent 1 month ago

I want to become foster parent because I love kids and want to help them. This goal is going to be here a while, though, because in Maine, you have to be 21 to become a foster parent. Oh, well! Only 7 more years! Also before I become a foster parent, I’ll need to have my driver’s license, finish high school, and be settled into my new lifestyle of running a boarding Kennel from my house. It’s going to be hard, being a foster parent. I know because I have friends who are in foster care. I can do it though. This is my purpose. I know this is why God put me on this Earth.

I was foster child myself. 6 months ago

AT the age of 17 years Old. I had decided I want to foster children that had no home or that was shiffed around. I always hated most of the foster homes I was in. They always treated me differently, and they would treated each child diffrently depending on thier situation. I would love to be a foster parent and show a child that there are real people out there, That I am not in it to do it for the money rather then to show that child I was too in there situation. I know how thier feeling. I show them how to have fun with life and break the cycle. There nobody out there that don’t care. I am 25 years old now. I am working to get my credit stable and to get a home. Once I get my life back on the right tracks. I would diffently concider being a foster mother again.

For the Right Reasons 15 months ago

Truly one of the most rewarding experiences to be had. If you treat your foster kids with love, respect, tenderness and compassion, it wil come back to you tenfold.

Presently I am waiting with bated breath to see if they—my former foster sons continue on the right path.



why can't i be a foster parent? 17 months ago

i am 18 years old and have a three bedroom home and a nine month old daughter. i stay at home and my husband works, i have been a girl scout for 13 years, i love children and i really want to become a foster parent..i don’t understand why i can’t help children and others can, when i am eligible in everything except my age?

I really want to do this. My husband says no because he thinks that it will be too hard on me emotionally. We are still young, but I think we have so much to offer and I’d love to give someone a loving home for as long as they may need it.

I would love to have children that need a home and lots of love. There just aren’t enough people to love them all.

he was our heart. but he went back to his mother, and it crushed us. we’re not foster parents anymore..

maybe someday we’ll try again.

we were in it to adopt. we hadn’t fully prepared to see him leave us..

still, it was the greatest experience ever -



We have done it! Being a foster parent is very rewarding! 18 months ago
