Weekend Wisdom: How Long Will a Foster Child Stay In My Home?
Question: We have two boys, ages 10 and 12. We’ve been told that if we become a foster family, the foster children will have to have a room to themselves. Our boys can share a room for another year, but then we want to separate them. Can we just foster for one year? How long will foster children usually stay in our home?
