Just Wondering.... Posted: 01-14-05 15:04pm
Is there a such thing as a temp foster
home? Where you can put your child into
and then take them back out when you're
ready to tend to them?

That's usually what foster care is. But
it's not a good thing usually.

not always. Foster care is a temp
solution for children. Be it that they
were taken away from the parents untill
further notice or the parents gave them up
or.... There are many diff reasons. I
was put into a foster care when I was a
teen because there was no room in any of
the group homes around montreal and once
there was room...Boom they switched me.
But foster care is there for many diff
reasons. But unless the foster parents
want and can legally adopt the child, they
are almost always temp.

Ya I was watching this tv program once...I
think it was adoption stories, im not
sure, but this lady gave up her baby, to a
family that wanted to adopt her, and the
lady had like...X...Amount of days to
really make up her mind for sure, but
after that and the papers were signed she
couldent get her back. I think that
foster care is the pre-addoption place.
Like if someone gets cps called, theyll go
to foster, till they get adopted perm.

Actually yes, kind of, there are places
where parents who are currently unable for
various reasons to care for their
child(ren) can go for up to 30 days I
think it is.

Sounds like you are more looking for what
is called "respite care"
