Foster Care - The Toughest Job You'll Ever Love (short)

A state foster care recruitment video that features foster kids and foster parents of various ages, ethnicities, and circumstances. This is a 3-minute version appropriate for use in church services or settings that require a shorter viewing time. There is also a 9-minute version that is an excellent tool to use where there is time for questions and answers. Extended versions of four interviews are posted at www.bethany.org/foster and on YouTube.

[IHaveAKittenNamed5]

i start my classes on june 24th. i can't wait to give a child the life they deserve.

[Straitupmarilyn]

I've always wanted to be a foster mother. Its convincing my husband. I will continue to pray that God deals with his heart. This is a good thing... I would love to be a parent again.

I might have to be a foster child cause of my parents and I feel SO sorry for those kids!

[101brittanymay]

Our family fosters.

I see all the pain, the tears

that goes on in these kids lives. They can be very troubled on the virge of giving up

but GOD always heals. just give it time.

i didn't live in foster care but my dad disn't come to my graduation. I didn't have a mother to care for me because she never got a foster home and turned to drugs in the public home systsem. She didn't know how to love cos she was never loved. And my dad just doesn't really know how to care for a girl.

I am going to be a foster parent. know what it is like wihtout a family that loves you. I want to help. Do it, please.

[Patwin1001]

@IHaveAKittenNamed5 thankyou. on behalf of a former ward of the state and many others i speak for

[shorttelove03]

I love kids so i don't get how people can harm them i was abused myself for not being a boy by my dad an i got sent to 2 abusive foster homes they were just in it for the money but i want 12 kids of my own and to also do foster care which i will prob end up adopting them :) i could care less about the money it will go all towards the kids for them.

@Straitupmarilyn Please note: it is VERY IMPORTANT that you are both in agreement. It's a huge responsibility taking care of someone elses child. Your husband must want to do this or there will be arguments about petty things.

[deborah1a]

May all that does this giving do it well, and may GD bless you all.
