One family's journey through foster care. The stories are true, but all the names are changed.
About Me
- Yondalla
- Daughter, sister, wife, mother, foster-parent blog writer, philosophy professor ... I am and have been many things. These days my identities as a teacher of bioethics and the daughter of a woman with Parkinson's and dementia lead me to agree with Peter Singer, "It's different when it's your mother."

I was a foster parent for ten years. I adopted two girls from them and we had several others that went back to the same situations they came from. They called me last year and wanted me to take in a fifteen year old girl but I have had some health issues plus problems with the one girl we adopted at that time. Would I do it again? Maybe. Never say never.....
