Is anyone familiar with any blogs or websites that describe experiences with being a foster parent, specifically as a short term foster parent whose goal isn't necessarily to adopt?
-
@Mrs. Lion: NYT Motherlode has a series on fostering right now. I've only read a couple but I think they are really interesting.
-
I read a ton of foster blogs. The baby is stirring so I'll send them to you as soon as I have a second.
The last family I nannied for were foster parents. They did not foster to adopt and I'd be happy to talk about our experience.
My boyfriend and I are going to become foster parents in the near future because it is so important to me.

Subscribing

@Foodnerd81: apparently I really liked the series, because as I was reading through I got my notice that I had read all of my free articles and needed to subscribe. Man!!
-
@Mrs. Lion: If you read the articles in Chrome's Incognito mode, you can get around that limit!
-
@mrbee: ooh! sneaky sneaky!
-
@Mrs. Lion: I'm a subscriber (love the nyt!) but sometimes that's the only way I can access articles when their login is broken!!

Not specifically related to short term foster but fosterhood nyc is a good blog. I would definitely check out her archives
