This book was written as a result of the author and his wife
spending several years providing for kids who needed a home. There
are many, many books written on the subject of "at risk" children
and/or foster children. Most, if not all, are written by clinical
psychologists or other 'people of learning' who believe that they
are child advocates. NOT THIS ONE This one tells it like it really
is After the mandatory hours of 'training' (in ( ) because we had
already raised four birth children and a teenager our boys had
adopted) we began accepting foster
The book describes how the foster parent feels about raising
foster children (and birth children). He relates from the
experiences of a foster dad rather than from a clinical slant. The
information, of course, applies to birth children, as well. Much
information is presented to assist parents in dealing with the
problems of puberty. Case studies are included as well as poems
from one of the foster girls and a diary from another foster parent
about her dealings with two foster children.
The sequel to this book is entitled: 'Never Underestimate the
Arrogance or Stupidity of Government' and covers a case in which we
sued Child Protective Services for mistreatment of foster parents
and a foster child.
