[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do some foster kids talk about their parents often? Do they want to go home even if it's some what disfunctional?[/quote]

We hear a lot of interesting things about their parents. Everything from "My mom made meatloaf once too, but it crumbled and didn't look loaf-like" to [b]"You're getting a blood test this morning? That looks like your best vein."[/b] to [b]"do i have to blow you tonight? my dad makes me do it every tuesday." [/b]

Almost across the board, the kids want to be with their parents. That's what attachment does. But that answer somehow implies the parents are at fault for their children being separated from them. We've had kids with us when their battered mother goes to jail for attempting to murder their abuser. We've had kids whose single parents have had to go into the hospital and no relatives are able to take them. Or kids with single parents who have been called back into the military who can't sort out being excused before they have to report. [/quote]

Why on earth do you want this influence around your own kids? Aren't your kids old enough where they then say "mommy wants a blow job" and you have to respond "sweetie it's something married ppl do to each other, in this house kids don't do that to parents?" Really!? Are you so interested in saving the world that it doesn't matter what your kids are exposed to?[/quote]

NP. Why on earth are you so hostile? It's weird.[/quote]
