Oh Melissa! That must have been so hard & heartbreaking for you to have DD placed with her grandparents! You must have a heart of gold to foster/adopt.
I have honestly thought about fostering, but I just could not do it. I am not strong enough. A girl I know does it, and she gets newborns. She had one little boy for about 6 months, but unfortunately had to give him back because the foster care system stopped reimbursing her and she couldn't afford it any more. She was devastated. Then she got a baby girl as an emergency and when she had to give her back to her demented mother, again, she was crushed. I know I would get too attached and I would NOT be able to do it...
