I would never have thought fostering would be so hard. It is bloody hard work, physically, mentally, financially and emotionally.
I don`t get it; people who know they have been screwed up then choose to screw up their own kids? When did that parental impulse of "doing better" "providing what I never had" or just simply "protecting from pain" get blown out?
I understand the theory of people who are having a hard time/ cant cope / dont have the life skills to cope.
But
You have to work pretty dam hard to screw up a kid in five short years ........
