Just wondering if at the start of your foster/adopt process if there were:

• Any questions that you asked that you thought were "stupid" (what was it and the answer)?
• If there was something that you WISHED you had asked before you got placed with a child but did not? Do you regret it?
• Any advice or words of wisdom that you would give to anyone starting the process?

Don't hold back...your words may help someone else make better decisions, ask better questions and be a better parent overall!!!!

Thank you (I love picking the brains of experts..lol)!!!!!

The question I'm thinking of wasn't a stupid question, but one that seemed a bit too rude to ask. Children's Services gave us a list of suggested questions to ask during the information sharing. One of them was "Do you like this child?". In the end we decided that if it was on the list it was OK to ask. The answer to that question was very helpful to us in making our decision because it seemed that everyone who had ever met J adored her.
