Exactly... My wife and I start foster parenting classes in February in hopes to eventually adopt a few siblings in need of a good home.

Beware any child(ren) diagnosed RAD. Run far, far away, especially if you already have children. Do NOT let well-meaning foster care workers talk you into adopting or placing RAD children with you...

Unless you don't mind them hiding knives around your house for later use...

Okay, what's a RAD child?

We've been told that the whole point of the classes is to scare you with all the worse possible cases of problem children. We currently don't have any children and my wife probably will not get pregnant until the day the first foster kid arrives (some corollary of Murphy's law I'm sure). We would need children that are good with pets as we have two very well behaved dogs and two nice cats.
