From people who came through it
“to anyone just starting out with fostering or adoption: it's not going to be like you imagine, and that's okay. some days you'll feel like you're getting it all wrong. i've been doing this for 8 years and i still have days where i want to hide in the shed. but you learn. you learn that the small wins matter more than the big ones. and you learn to ask for help, even when it's the last thing you want to do. you're not doing it alone, even if it feels like it.”
Second Oak · been through adoption and foster care“I think I was sure I'd never feel normal again. I was wrong. I stopped trying to be the perfect parent. Good enough is enough. Keep going, even slowly.”
Rami from Tangier · been through adoption and foster care“To whoever needs this: Nearly four years ago I was exactly where you are. Back then it was foster caring for 8 years. I'm volunteering here now. You get yourself back in pieces.”
Savannah L · been through adoption and foster care“A note for the next person. This time last year I was exactly where you are. For me it was the adoption panel. I've started painting again. You get yourself back in pieces. Praying for you.”
