Ditto what Caddo said. We keep the younger age range too. At that age, they aren't aware of modesty issues yet and sometimes they will get away from you without underwear or a pamper on. That's life with little kids.
As for the alarm on the door, we don't have to do that in IN, so that sounds far-fetched to me too. We were encouraged to use one if we got a placement who liked to run away from home or one who molested younger kids. But other than that, we don't need one.
Life hasn't changed drastically for us. We have occasional days where we lounge around in PJ's all day. We have to let down and relax sometimes and that's okay!
For the most part, our foster kids become part of our family and we treat them like our own kids. When we want to hang out and have an out-of-the-ordinary kind of day, we do it and the kids like it!
