How should young people in foster care define family? US society promotes the idea that the family that you are born into is the family that you are stuck with. However, foster youth across the country and beyond are challenged with the pressing task of creating their own families on a daily basis. The process is not easy but the reward far exceeds the pain and difficulty that it takes to form a lasting and loving family that cares for and supports a young person in foster care.
Thank you for this video. I'm so glad to have found this channel. We are in the process of adopting a sibling group from foster care, and really wanted to hear from the people who have been in foster care so we know what our future kids are seeing/thinking. Thanks for being open & helpful.
