Thanks Here's Hoping for your response!
Why would you suggest to foster care 1st? Would it be difficult then to go from being foster carers to adoptive parents? The way I am seeing it at the moment is that as we don't have any children I would love to experience all aspects of bringing a child in to the world (being pregnant and giving birth looks like is not going to be possible for us) So the next best thing would be young baby/toddlers. I want to experience changing nappies, feeding, drawling, 1st words, 1st days at shool and everything inbetween. Can you give me an idea of what foster caring is like on a daily basis, does everything stay as nrmal as possible for the child, do they go to nursery/school. Do you go to work or have you given up work to foster care??...... I am just trying to get lots of info by talkig to people that have done fostering/adoption and looking on websites and I am going to go to the library tomorrow too to get some books. Dh has agreed that early next year we can start to enquire more seriously by phoning local authorities and getting info pack and attending meetings so I am using the next 8-10mths to gather more info!
I really would love all the info you can give....
