Foster Parenting Podcast show

Summary: A new school year has begun and we’re learning how to help our kids with their school work. We discuss reasons that children in the foster care system often have learning delays or fall behind in school, including social and emotional issues. One way that a parents can help their children is by requesting an Individual Education Plan.  An IEP should be requested in writing. We also share more listener comments on how to prepare a foster child for an adoptive home.
