We get e recognition letter every May, Foster Care Month, Whoppee.

What is good is that thnk yous from the social workers. Right now we have a serious sex offending teenager. No group home and very few treatment places would touch him. We can control him but it is very hard. It's living with someone who we teach children how to avoid. He's temporary, waiting for a bed at a place that specializes these kids. We get lots of thanks now, even from the judge.

I would remind people that it's atwo-way street. thanking social workers helps the relationship. I always try to end each contact with a thank you, even with the blithering idiot who I know will not do anything he promised.
