[quote=Anonymous]My husband and I are in our mid 40's with no children (to make a long story short, it didn't work out for us). We are thinking of becoming foster parents and if that goes well possibly adopting. Due to our ages and other factors, if we decide to go forward we most likely would be fostering older children. Because of the size of our house as well as our own limitations we would only be able to foster one child at a time. I'm curious to hear from others who have experience in this area. Thoughts? Things that we should consider? Both of us work full-time (and will have to continue working full-time). Our marriage is good but I have had lifelong problems with depression/anxiety (currently being treated with medication). In my heart, I want to do this but I'm scared. We just started the process of getting certified through our county DSS. [/quote]
