Foster Adoption: The View From Both Sides
Right now, there are half a million kids in foster care – kids for whom the idea of a real family is just a dream. Some of them will spend their whole childhood in foster care, and will be turned out into the world at age 18 – on their own. Others will be adopted. Thousands more will spend years waiting to see which group they belong to. Have you ever thought about what it would be one of them? To move from home to home, hoping for a family that will take you in and make you a permanent part of their lives? And what would it be like to adopt a foster child – what is the impact on the family? This show answers the questions from both sides. You'll meet children who were adopted, children who "aged out" without ever joining a loving family, and parents who invited foster children into their lives, and learned to accept and conquer the challenges that foster parents face.
