We are dedicated that whenever one of our kiddos leaves us, that they never leave with their stuff in a trash bag, and they leave us with dignity. Thank you for your heart for these kiddos as we desperately need more foster parents like you!

I have now decided to love all those small children under your charge "loosely." It took my heart such a long time to let go of the baby boy and girl that you recently had because I already loved them so much, then they were suddenly taken away. Now I am afraid to even watch this vlog as I can already feel myself beginning to "bond." Strange emotions considering I am continents away from you. 😥 One thing I have discovered about myself from watching this vlog: I am not brave enough to foster. Once a child comes into my care I just cannot let go. Only adoption can work for me.

@kristyplatt6233 Жыл бұрын

Peter, don't be afraid to put some toys out of reach, and rotate just a few things into the play area at a time. Also, try labeling the bins so that it is clear that there is a place for everything to help teach tidiness and care for the home.

@msmini1585 Жыл бұрын

Excellent idea. It really does help to rotate the toys. Things are a little neater, and the children are excited to play with a toy that they haven't seen in a while.

I have always wanted to be a mom but God has other plans for me. I'm sharing this with my husband who is older than I am. I told him if something happens to him, I'm going to do this. Kudos Peter, thank you for sharing your journey because I still want to do this. It makes me sad that all the foster children only comes with trash bags. If I know this is temporary, I'd save all their things in luggage cases for when they come of age, I'd give it back to them. I'm saddened by how they are treated. I was raised in a state ran school due to my disability. My mother wanted to have our house as a Safeway house for teenagers who became pregnant but it never came to be for some reason. I want to carry on her desires as they now are mine.

Oh the energy!! I love how everyone is so accepting of each other. Your new little boy is going to be a handful, as most little three year olds are. I'm glad you show patience and understanding, but also show just the right amount of limitations. Children want someone to give them some boundaries. It makes them feel more secure knowing they don't have to have responsibility for all decisions because someone is watching out for them to do what is right. Congratulations on your new member of your family. I look forward to watching what could be a very lively time ahead!😁

An nonprofit in Pittsburgh called Foster Love Project provides foster families with free shopping at their "store" for needed items as well as having a duffel bag drive every year where people all over the city can fill a duffel bag for a child with new items and then bring it to one of several drop off locations around the city and suburbs, thereby eliminating that child's garbage bag.

The foster system is imperfect, but it’s made better by caring foster parents like you Peter. The sad reality is that the kids still love their parents, their biological family, they miss them even though they grow to love you (foster dad) too. In Canada, for the well-being of the children, the system attempts to keep the kids in touch with their families. E.g., They have supervised visitations with their parent(s) as soon as possible. Is this the case in America too?

Peter you are a blessing to any child that comes to you. The little one just fit right in the minute he walked through the door as if he had been there the whole three years of his life. There’s a special comfort in your voice when you talk to the children to make them feel loved right away. I don’t believe in coincidences but I do believe in miracles and you are one of the greatest miracles of all I can only imagine what some children have gone through in their lives before they come to you or. I’ve never been through the foster care system but I did leave an orphanage and although people think of orphanages being horrible places where I lived a place called Mount Loretto in Staten Island New York I had fond memories. I would love to send some things to you such as gift cards to help out with groceries and may be other things you may need in the future I just need to know where to send them. Thank you so much for what you do for these beautiful children and all though I was happy at the orphanage, if I was ever placed in foster care I wouldn’t want a dad like you may God bless you always and the children that come through your home you are a wonderful father to them and a good man for taking in these children God bless

This is not a mess! It’s a three year old under construction! When my kids were little we had so many Legos they loved to play with. I wanted them to be helpful and tidy up but hundreds of Lego pieces is a bit much. I spread a big sheet on the floor so the two or three kids could sit and make things. When it was time to clean up all I had to do was bundle up the sheet with the Legos inside and toss it all in a big bin.
