My youngest is 3 and that age is notorious for struggling with impulse control. To me, I think it's incredibly important to separate good/bad behavior and good/bad boy. I'm certainly no expert, but what we have concentrated on is taking it an incident at a time. If ds displays bad behavior, then it's explained to him that it was a bad choice and he gets a consequence, such as a time out (maybe a time in for a foster child instead).
Without examples, it sounds like your fc's actions may be pretty typical for his age. It sounds like you may just need to reinforce his good choices and explain his poor choices to him. Of course, all this is without knowing if there are extremes to his behavior.
