Episode 15 - Fostering Teenagers
Our brief experience fostering teenage girls is discussed in all of its glory. We didn’t have a positive experience but we still think it’s a great idea to foster teenagers. Hopefully someone can learn from our experience (most of all us).
We should also be clear, as always, that Michael, Beth and Clare are not their real names.

Hey you two,
I will listen to this when my husband wakes up (he works for a Seattle co., so gets to sleep in on work days).
We are like you; we are fortunate to be able to work from a home office.
This should be an important one for us to pay attention to, b/c although we are going to foster (with the intent to adopt) a younger set of siblings, we are going to provide respite care for kids of all ages–including teens–in the meantime. Should be an experience!
Cheers,
Michelle

Wow, you guys. Are you going to have gray hair when we see you in a few months?
