I'm an adoptive parent of two young children, with one biological child in between them. My experience with foster parenting has been a bit rocky (not sure if I'd even describe it as "good" but not bad either...inconsistent). We've taken care of 2 different placements so far.
One challenge I personally face is that my birthchild often asks questions like 'How come we took you? But [your name] doesn't go home yet?' (that is, about our foster kids), and it opens up conversations about permanence.
