We have fostered for almost 20 years. Had 45 kids from 9 months to 17. We just had 8, that is the most at one time. Three of them were old enough to be a big help. They all returned home at one time. Now the house is empty. We can hardly wait for the next placement. This is the first time in years we have not had kids. three of these kids are still in touch, we had them for almost 3 years. Four years is the longest we ever had kids. Each one brings their own set of problems, but we love having them around. I spend alot of time with them. We live in the country and do alot of things outside. I don't allow much tv. You have to keep organized. po:
