Have you ever typed "foster mom" into myspace looking for foster moms?

I did, and WOW!!

I was amazed at how many people name their foster moms and their heroes.

Any thoughts?

The brain

I am not sure what you are asking.

Sure a kid would name a foster mom....there is a connection to that person. A kid could have spent along time with that person.

I personally find it healthy that a child can admit to being in foster care. In the old days, it was a secret, because you did not want to be singled out.

In fact, Foster Alumni have debated whether people should "come out" or not about being a past foster youth. It is not a stigma because your parents screw up!

I'm not really all that amazed. Foster moms ARE heroes. They're not fostering to make up for infertility... they're fostering because they have the room in budget, home, and heart to help a child out... even if that child might go back to their biological family.

I have HUGE respect for foster parents. HUGE.

Just a Mom

Well, I am glad that we can be considered heroes. We spend a lot of time being the bad guys, so its nice to know that eventually kids see that we are only trying to help.

i never have, but that is pretty cool!

Mom to Foster Children

I don't think of myself as a hero. I do however think of myself as the one who can heal a boo boo when needed when his mommy can't as she isn't here. As to your question - I have never typed foster mom into myspace out there looking for others....

Sophie

No. I have not.
