00:00What are the challenges of being a foster parent at home, both mentally and physically?
00:10There are many challenges for being a foster parent.
00:15First of all, we have to discuss with our partner if we want to be a foster parent because there is no other way.
00:22We choose to be a foster parent because we want to raise our children.
00:28Raising children is not an ordinary thing.
00:30We have a responsibility to raise our children and send them to society.
00:35When we choose to be a foster parent, there will be challenges, right?
00:39The first challenge is that when they become a foster parent, they will be financially dependent.
00:44Even if we want to buy something for them, we have to be financially dependent on our partner.
00:49When we talk to our partner and take this decision, the stress level will be a little less.
00:54When we are 100% dependent on our partner, even if it is a small thing, we have to ask our partner for money.
01:05The next challenge is that they will be isolated.
01:11When they become a foster parent, they will think that their family life will be like that.
01:17I have been a foster parent for 5 years now.
01:22In the beginning, we used to go out.
01:24Have you ever thought of going back to work?
01:28I have never thought of going back to work.
01:31I have thought of taking my life to the next level.
01:35But I have never thought of going back to work.
01:38Because we have a responsibility.
01:40We have started enjoying that responsibility.
01:42That is, raising our children, right?
