My wife and I are almost ready to begin accepting placements and we have discussed this. If we have the space and are able to meet the child's needs then we will do it. If we end up with a child who has a bmom that is young and still actively producing then we would cut off when we feel we are getting too close to being overwhelmed or when we hit 6 children since our max is 6. We want to have more than one child and this sounds like a good way for the children to stay connected as well has have brothers and/or sisters in our home.
