Five for Friday: Foster Care

My focus this week is on seeing the humanity in parents whose children end up in foster care. The first post is from the point of view of a social worker. The three in the middle are by adoptive or pre-adoptive parents. The fifth (and my favorite, I think) is by a now-grown former foster child, written in the form of a letter to the author's young child who was placed for adoption as an infant.
