[quote=Anonymous]Whether or not you pursue this, thank you, OP, for considering adopting a teen. I’m a foster parent who said “no teens” but—as things go when you’re on the emergency call list—we’ve wound up fostering three teens. And I’m so, so glad we did. Won’t get into it all here, but those three have places in my heart forever. None had actual behavior problems….just normal human reactions to tough life circumstances. And one helped my younger daughter work thru a bullying situation at school. We’re lucky we had a chance to foster our teens and I wish other people knew reality vs. just the horror stories.[/quote]
