I’ve been fostering a family member for a month or so, and it all came to a head today. My wife and I tried, but the behavior was just too much for us to feel safe with our existing children. I hate that we’re giving up and I hate the circumstances that caused this, but it is what it is. If you’re in the same place please don’t beat yourself up; sometimes you can want something really bad and it still not be right for you.

    Don’t we have an OffMyChest sub or something? YSK and TIL should be about factual and verified info, not personal experiences…

        This is factual info and I demand it be posted to TIL

            Now I don’t believe you. There’s an old saying in Tennessee — I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again.

      Agree, OPs experience sucks and it’s good perspective but YSK should be focused on facts.

      Aaaand now !goodoffmychest exists. I am not intending to squat on this, so I’ll set the foundation and people can talk to me if they want to become mods. <3
