I didn’t imagine she had 23 foster kids living with her from birth to adulthood and I can’t imagine anyone else did It’s ahard job—especially with teenagers—and she should be praised for doing it no matter how long each kid was in her care.
My grandparents were foster parents when I was growing up. They took problem teenagers in and paid for it in stress and lost time with their own family. They even had one twin brother stab the other to death in their dining room at dinner.
The teens they took in were the reason we real grandkids didn’t get a lot of time there. It was a hell of a sacrifice they made.
She had 23 more than I have!
