I find that one of the single most offensive statements I can think of. My husband and I are planning to foster because going through the adoption process we saw how many good foster homes were needed. We wanted to provide a child with safety and love in a very troubling time. I get so offended when people think we "do it for the money". The money doesn't even enter into the equation for us. Besides, the money will just cover the added expense of another child in the house. People can be such idiots!
