Question

Im going to my frist foster home and i dont kow how to feel is that normal?

Answer 1

yes, that's normal. everybody in that situation is afraid at first, but then you need to give your foster parents a chance and be nice to them and listen to them, who knows you may love them.

Answer 2

Yes it is normal to be a little confused and nervous. You should share these feelings with your foster family or case worker and maybe they can help.

Answer 3

Just remember your foster parents want you to be happy and give them a chance. . .

Answer 4

I think it's totally normal you feel the way you do. It just makes me feel so good and maybe even a tear coming on b/c still, are wonderful people out there that care for people in your position....we thank God for them. I wish you the best and you can tell they value you so much....

God Bless

Answer 5

I am so sorry you are going to a foster home. I think it's difficult to go someplace to live when you don't know who you are going to live with and what to expect. I think you are a great kid for reaching out to ask about it. Good luck to you.

Answer 6

Oh honey. Yes it is normal to be scared. Your leaving you family, the only thing you ever knew , to go to some strange place. Listen this is going to be hard I'm sure, but god will help you through it. Remember that he will never give you anything you can't handle.

Answer 7

if you werent nervous i would worry about you, tell the family how you feel, im sure they will understand. they are probably worried too.

this is a fresh start for you, try to embrace it as a positive thing. good luck to you, everything will be fine

Answer 8

I think that sounds totally normal as you do not know what to expect.  Just remember this..if there is anything in this family that does not feel right to you, please, please, please let an adult know immediately.  You could let a teacher know.  There are a lot of good foster families but unfortunately, there are some bad ones too.   If you would like an adult to talk to, send me your e-mail.  I am a grandma and have two children and two grandchildren of my own.  Good luck sweetie.

Answer 11

yes hun its very normal to be nervous going to your first foster home. you are being take out of the surroundings that are familler to you and placed into surroundings that you don't know yet. i have some friends that keep foster children in their home until they are able to find a family to adopt them, and they also have exchangee students living in their house, plus their children (then ones that haven't moved out due to getting married) so they have a big household. but when they have someone new come into their house no matter if it is a foster child or a exchang student they are *always* nervous. just go their being yourself, and let them know that your happy that they have offered to take you into their home. that's what everyone who they have had in their house has did and its a really good "ice breaker" if you have any questions get a hold of me and i'll try to re-find their number or e-mail so that you can talk to them. just go to my profile and write me if you would like to talk to them or have any questions you would like to ask them!

the parents of the household is both emergency EMT's so they are very friendly and love to help people, and answer questions where ever a question is.
