totaly strange thread here but here goes.
right a friend of mine has been a foster carer for 7 years and she has changed age group and is now looking after 0-5 years she has her first baby due in soon and its mothers drug dependant so this baby will be monitored for how ever long before being placed into her care.it is going to be hard as she minded older children.As much as shes excited for the new ones arrival she also is walking into the unknown as shes never minded children who have had to be weaned off of things like this.so i supose my reason for this post is to ask for any past time experiances wether your own or a friends in this situation or alcohol withdrawl .shes been given loads of support and advice on how people soothe little ones with withdrawl and how they cope on a night time ect but i just thaught i would ask if theres any 1 on here with past experiance and see if theres any tips of advice i can pass onto her.Me personaly think its such a fantastic thing to and be in a position to help theese children untill they find a for ever home or be returned to their parents.I would get too attatched and want to addopt them all me lol.
so just any wise words i can pass on or past time experiances would be gr8 x
