my husband and i have located (relatives) a sibling group of 6 that we will soon be getting, does anyone have suggestions, sounds like we will get 3 then another 2 or 3- the oldest is 11 and they want her to feel good about the move since she has mixed feelings now, which is natural since this is her first time she gets to be a kid and not have to parent the other 5. they are in 3 different foster homes now and is interstate, that is why we dont have them already. any advise on the transition, we have a 1 year old daughter and i have 2 stepdaughters 8 and 4, but they are only weekenders. so we will basically get three sets of twins. any advise on organization, behavior plans, setting rules, how they come about calling us mom and dad...please help us!! thank you, and i guess once this happens there is limited time for anything since the original questions are never followed up
i know we will have our hands full and would appreciate any info!! thanks!
