Foster Parents Abusing Children

Foster Parents Abusing Children

Note: This is just precious! Kelly from Adoption Blogs tries to rationalize why a foster parent would abuse a child. Notice how she tries to justify it.

"I think the main reason foster parents abuse is stress and/or frustration. Raising foster children and all the accompanying issues leads to high levels of stress. I think many parents are ill prepared to handle the issues our kids have. It’s not just the kids’ issues or behaviors, but all the accompanying issues that go with foster care. There is documentation, regular social worker visits, birth family visits, medical appointments and various other things. Foster parenting classes don’t always address things like this, or give you an accurate idea of how much time is truly involved in all of this."
