How is it different from looking after your own children

How is it different from looking after your own children

“It can be the scrutiny. We all try to keep our own children safe and protected but we don’t have people looking in through the windows at us. Fostering can feel like this, we are answerable 24 hours a day to professionals and the children’s parents for what we do. Caring for someone else’s children is such a responsibility.”
Zoe Snell

“The children come with lots of issues; sometimes they have had no guidelines, rules or boundaries. These issues all have to be dealt with. Your own children have had these instilled in them during their life time. Fostering a child takes a great deal of patience, love and care.
