My daughter wants to get training before she becomes a foster mom. She knows right now she isn't mature enough..She lives with me and she don't want to treat the foster kids like an outsider, but like a brother or sister. She does want to help teens tho..I will tell her about big sister program..That one I missed thank you for the great idea...she will love it.
