[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My sister and her husband are fostering a 4yo. They hope to adopt, but it is complicated. There is still some visitation with the maternal grandparents, and the paternity of the father has never been determined. If a father is found and confirmed, he would have rights. Ultimately, they do hope to adopt. I have a dear friend whose family fostered a teenager who knew the whole time that their goal was to give her a safe and loving home until she was 18, and from there they helped her (to an extent) get a job, go to a community college, and get a place to live. They spend holidays together, etc., but I do not believe she expects to be in their will. They met and kind of had a shared goal that they would be a safe and loving influence in her life, but not her parents. [/quote] Your friends are kinda terrible not to give that child a real family.[/quote]
