The more I do this , the more I have come to realize there are two reactions you get when you tell people you are a foster parent.- Either they look at you like you are scum of the earth or you immediately are nominated for sainthood in their eyes. There is no in between. It's amazing too because I always hear the same thing " Oh I could never do that- I give you a lot of credit.
There is no answer to this that won't get me into trouble so I simply smile.

All I know is I am thankful for everyone on this board that knows this "choice" we made to do this neither makes us scums ( doing it for the $12 a day we get ) nor does it make us saints. It simply makes us humans who have been led down a path ( for me it is a calling of sorts) to try and make this world a little bit better for our future generation.
