[QUOTE="donna723, post: 280041, member: 1883"] I agree with Steely. I think he's showing a great deal of maturity and restraint in how he's handling all of this. And about the adult children, that's another thing these people probably aren't complying with either. Usually, if the foster parent has their own adult 'children' still living in the home, these people must go through all the same training and background checks as the foster parents do. I think that's pretty much standard procedure. I know when I was going through the classes, there was one lady who 'forgot' to mention that her grown daughter still lived with her, even though the requirements were made very clear. They found this out [I]after[/I] she had finished the classes. She intended to foster teenagers, and people willing to take teenagers were in high demand, but they still revoked her certification. They also found out later that she had lied about having a landline home phone ... she just had a cell phone that she took with her when she went out. The landline phone was required in case the kids were there by themselves and there was an emergency. In her case, I'm glad no kids ended up with her. If she lied about this, she probably lied about other things too. [/QUOTE]
