[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a mom with 4 biological children, 4 adopted children, and up to 4 foster children. They homeschool, dad is federal LEO, and they have a modest house. She’s one of the most energetic people I know and somehow she and her husband get tons of couple time. No idea how they do it. [/quote] She gets a monthly stipend and health care for the 4 adopted if through foster care and gets a monthly stipend, WIC/little kids and health insurance. So, 8 kids getting stipends is how they do it. She's using it as income to stay home. Legally she should not be homeschooling foster kids.[/quote] Maybe they don’t homeschool the foster children? We aren’t that close, but I know their kids are homeschooled. I didn’t only mean how they do it financially, more how they can manage to do all that and not go crazy. Their house is only 3 or 4 bedrooms, they still manage to have lives outside of their children, she never seems to be lacking sleep, etc. I find it admirable. [/quote]
