From people who came through it
โI was where you are a year and a half ago. The worst part was foster caring for 8 years. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Praying for you.โ
elijah.north89 ยท been through adoption and foster careโPara quien empieza como familia de acogida: no te voy a mentir, hay dรญas que parece que no das una. El trabajo de historia de vida es duro, el panel te pone nervioso y los adolescentes mienten y vapean. Pero tambiรฉn hay momentos buenos. Busca a alguien con quien hablar, como yo con Kerry. Y ten paciencia contigo misma.โ
sundayspark ยท been through adoption and foster careโto 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.โ
Second Oak ยท been through adoption and foster careโPlease be gentle with yourself and I wasn't, and it made everything harder, ask for a double appointment if you can, it changed things for me. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ
