Mostly Boys

I've been a single foster parent for 2 years. I've have 17 children, 15 of them under age 2.

Both of the over 2 were girls (6 yrs and 3 yrs).

Of the under 2 there have been 4 girls (3 age 4 months and one age 15 months at placement) and 11 boys (5 at 5 days and under; 3 who were 5 months; 1 at 7 months; 1 at 15 months and 1 at 22 months at placement).

Some were adopted, several went to relative foster placements, and some moved to higher tier homes (more medical needs than originally thought when DHS placed them - I am a non-medical home). At this time I have a seven month old girl (one of the 4 month at placement babies).

They have been in my home for a range of 1 day (relative placement) to 11-1/2 months (adopted).
