In my other questions I have stated how I'm interested in fostering a child when I am 18. I just let one of my friends know about it & he criticised saying that I should leave it to the people who know what they are doing.. This is something I really want to do so should I go for it?
How can I sort myself out over the next 2 years (I am 16 at the moment) to make sure I can offer her the stable environment that she needs? Is it worth leaving school now to do an apprenticeship or get a full time job, so that I have a reliable source of income, my friend said that her coming just after I was finished yr 12 wouldn't be stable, even though it WOULD be! Any advice anyone can offer to help the Human Services Department see that I am the right person to take the little girl in to my home? How do I get it started? Is it worth speaking to lawyers now? Or wait until I am 18? Also if anyone can answer my other questions it would be greatly appreciated as I would like to start sorting this out!
