Family or Theraputic??

Hello there,

I was wondering how many of you are regular/family foster families and how many are specialized/theraputic...and why you chose that route.

I'll start.

We're regular family fostering because I homeschool our 3 bios and I don't feel that I have enough time/energy or recourses available to me (live very rural) to fully take care of a special-needs child. My husband works a lot and all of the children's school stuff and discipline falls on me, as does the housework, meals, sports practices and games, appointments and..eveything else!!!
