Thank you Kim! This is the article i needed to read. You and Dave were my inspiration to get my foster license last year. I’ve had 4 short-term placements so far. This piece addresses the subject i’ve come to realize is most under-discussed. I want to be more prepared for when i get a long term placement, and i will be checking out the books you’ve recommended.
Your ability to connect and give insight and inspire questions is amazing. I love Raffi, and I love how you love him. Thank you for sharing and pouring light on this.
You and David are such special souls — and a great team. Thank you for sharing so much of the good and the ‘bad,’ and the lessons you’ve learned along the way. And thanks for teaching us about blocked care; I’m researching that more rn. Wishing you and your beautiful family lots more happy (and smooth) days ahead. Fwiw, ❤️ the motto and t-shirt idea!
You know I love everything you’ve ever written and this piece is no different. I was just telling my husband that I hate reading your work because it’s hard to read something we live with, and I love reading them because it’s good to know I’m not alone. Is it weird to be happy someone is suffering with you?
When you talked about making the invisible visible 🤯 guilty. I never wanted anyone to know her business then I realized I was hurting her by not giving others the chance to step up for her.
I so wish I could be that parent, the one who seems to have had eternal patience. I was not. Fortunately my son was and is neuronormative. I send blessings in your support for your child. He is so lucky to have found his way to you.
