Lets Talk About the Hard Stuff
Being a foster parent is not an easy journey BUT you are not alone!
WELCOME!
I am here to talk about the hard stuff no one wants to talk about. Being a foster parent is hard. Being an adoptive parent is hard. Living with trauma and experiencing secondary trauma is hard. Most people want to shove the hard into the back of the closet, where no one can see it, so when guests come over it looks like they live in a pristine house and their life is completely organized and everyone is perfect. BUT WE ARN'T PERFECT!!
Join me in talking about the hard stuff. Lets bring it out of the closet and into the light and show it off! Life as a foster parent is hard, but when we try and hide our shame, and our kids shame, we teach them to not be themselves. Lets change that!
