Download or read book Fostered written by Tori Hope Petersen and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2022-10-18 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you’re wondering if God can truly move in the life of someone with all the odds stacked against her, look no further than Tori Hope Petersen. Tori grew up in the foster care system, a bi-racial child in a confusing and volatile world. Growing up with a mentally ill mother and living in twelve different foster homes, nothing was in her favor. And yet, even with a minuscule chance of graduating college and a great risk of being homeless, jobless, and on drugs, Tori overcame every negative stereotype and assumption that attacked her identity. However, Tori will tell you she did not overcome. Christ did. In the face of the storm, Jesus made a way for Tori to find profound hope, deep faith, renewed purpose, and a loving family, too. After so many years of being on one side of foster care as a child, Tori is now on the other side as a foster mom, adoptive mom, and biological mom. On top of that, she became a Track and Field All-American in college and now works with nonprofits, ministries, and beyond advocating for foster care reform, adoption advocacy, and help for vulnerable populations. If you want to hear the true tale of an unlikely overcomer, this book is for you. If you want to learn more about the foster care system from a former foster youth’s perspective, this book is for you. If you want to better dwell in the reality of your own spiritual adoption by our Heavenly Father and better understand the orphan and the widow that He loves dearly, this book is for you. Ultimately, if you want to remember who God is, and what He can do through the most unlikely of people, Fostered is for you.

Download or read book The Foster Child s Journey Into My Home written by Ella Mentry and published by . This book was released on 2017-03-21 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book I write about the life that I experience, through the eyes of foster children, while they lived in my home with my family and me. I want to let the world know that it is important for us to help raise, not only our children, but children whose parent or parents are unable to do so. Yes, "it takes a village to raise a child"! These foster children enter the foster care system, some as young as newborn, and sometimes they linger or get lost in the system. They either float from home-to-home, are adopted by an adoptive foster parent(s) or the foster parent who is caring for them. Very few children return to their families, for many different reasons. I want to enlighten people, by helping them understand that these precious foster children deserve a home, they deserve to feel wanted, loved and told that they are special. As a former foster parent, I learned that there was a misconception about foster children. Some people thought that all foster children were born drug-addicted and/or were sickly. Not so! Foster children are up-to-date with their immunizations, they go for physicals each time that are placed in a foster home and upon leaving the foster home. I also want to share some of my experiences which I had with foster children...some of the things they did and some of the things they have said. We must remember that children are quite resilient, therefore, even foster children thrive in uncomfortable circumstances. Please read what I have written because I would like for everyone to try and understand what it must be like to be a child, be removed from your home and placed inside of a home with total strangers. Please take a minute and try to imagine yourself in their shoes...how scary it must feel like to them. How, even babies who are used to their mother's scent, end up in a stranger's arms. This stranger has a totally different scent that the baby's mother, so imagine how irritable this baby can become because he or she no longer smell

Download or read book Becoming Home written by Dana Sacco and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-12-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This isn't a book about the horror stories often associated with foster parenting, nor is it an account of the many children who passed through my home. Rather, it is an authentic, firsthand account from a mother's perspective, detailing the realities of the foster parent journey. I share everything from the initial decision to foster children, to the transformational process of becoming a foster parent, and how this monumental and absolutely rewarding decision can alter your life and your home. These are the unspoken truths I learned throughout the process - the swirling emotions, the lingering fears, the poignant triumphs, and even the moments of sheer absurdity. Often, prospective foster parents are handed booklets outlining what the system expects of them, with only a fleeting mention of how the experience can reshape us as individuals and families. In this book, I hope to explain what to actually expect from the inside out, offering insights not typically found in conventional guidebooks.

Additionally, the adult guide includes instructions for facilitating each activity, talking points and answers when applicable. The Robbie Rabbit(TM) stories and their supplemental materials are designed specifically for foster parents, adoptive parents and/or caseworkers who want to: (1) Help a foster child and/or an adoption-eligible child adjust better to tough changes in life; (2) Promote communication between the child and the important people in his life; and (3) Gain insight into a child's feelings and interpretation of the world around him.

Download or read book In Search of Serenity written by Sally J King and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-27 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Search of Serenity recounts the stories of adoption through the foster system-not once, but twice-as Sally J King weaves her daughter's adoption odyssey with her own. Apprehended as a starved and neglected infant, Sally became a ward of children's services until being adopted at six months of age. Though placed with a caring family, trauma followed her though childhood with the insidious sexual abuse by a family member. Candid and raw, Sally's account cuts to the heart of the wounded foster child and exposes flaws in the system that is set out to protect its children. With an insider's perspective, and practical advice for foster parents and adoptive families alike, Sally does not pull any punches. For the children's sake, change must happen, both with the system and within hurting families. Readers will be encouraged and motivated by Sally's energy and irrepressible spirit to "do the hard things" that can make a difference for their children and families. Sally's positive message to families is "Healing, Help, Hope." This book dishes it out in huge helpings.
