Asking Questions Before Taking a New Placement
Mar 10th 2013, 18:25

If you were called today to take a foster care placement - what questions would you ask the social worker calling? Do you know? Have you given this thought? Most experienced foster parents have a mental list of things they want to know about before accepting a new child.

I think one of the most important questions to ask is why the child is needing to come into your home - why in care, or why they are moving from another home. Another important question to ask is the number of times a child has moved. Take a moment to read what I suggest foster parents should ask, then share what questions you like to ask by clicking "comments" below.
