We haven't been interviewed by an expectant mom yet but...
If you think some of the questions/concerns you have are hard to work, or hard to fit into conversation, then I would really encourage you to ask to read their home study. We are half done our home study, and I know a lot of questions that you ask are answered in there. If you can read the info on fertility etc, then you'll wouldn't have to ask it. I know we were asked all about our parenting styles etc. I don't know how much detail is in a home study, I've never read one, but it might give you a starting off point....as in....I read in your home study you use X method for disciple. Do you expect that would work in the middle of a grocery store...what would you do then? Cause let's face it...the grocery store tantrums are the worst  Our social worker did say today that "no one ever sees the home study" a facilitator or out of state agency might glance through it, or maybe the judge the does the interstate compact or finalization, but other wise no one reads it. Sort upset me....why did we spend so much time explaining and discussing it all then? I would like expectant moms to read ours if it will help them see a better picture of us! Just my thoughts...ask for that home study!
