    OK I've been in a lot of faster homes and id have to say that it all depends on the age of kids that your planning on having in your home. If your planning on raising teenagers make sure that you don't get a girl and boy close to the same age I'm sure that you can easily figure out why lol.if you get a black child assuming that your not. Make sure that you know a little about how how to care for their hair and skin this could help fill the gap. Its very important to let them have their freedom to an extent you have to let them feel like you truly care about them being supportive is very important because being in foster care comes along with a lot of emotional baggage. I home that ivehelped you out if you have questions just let me know and ill do my best to answer you!GOOD LUCK! Your doing a great thing
