hey guys- after being told we need to go on the ivf program and that our first baby still may be a while away yet has got me thinking.
I saw an ad in the paper for families desperately needed for kids in our area. I rang and spoke to the lady from the Salvation Army today and she was lovely.
She has arranged for paperwork etc to be sent out to me for "respite care" which is looking after kids solely on weekends.
i will be asking for young children- hopefully babies to try and avoid these stories about troubled children and erratic behaviour.
I would love to hear from anyone else who can give me some advice. Once I am caring for the child- is there any way of pulling out? If it wasnt working out or for whatever reason? i guess thats my biggest worry right now.
Danni - Once you qualify for respite care and you are caring for children, you do have the option of saying no. The agency (well I can speak for the one we are dealing with) encourage you to be honest. Good Luck with it, is the agency providing any information & training sessions for you & your dh?
