Candie Farquhar, foster mother from Sterling, CO, was very clear about fostering not being for everyone.
"It's really tough," said Farquhar.
When asked about the negatives of foster care Farquhar said, "It's exciting to get them but then it hurts when you see how damaged they are and how sad they are."
However, Farquhar spent much more time expounding on the best parts about fostering.
"For the first two years she would send me the sweetest note and text on Mother's Day, that she loved me and was thankful for what we did," said Farquhar on her favorite part of fostering, using a previous foster child as an example of how some of the children get so attached they want to stay in touch with their old foster parents.
Attorney Lori Hulbert said, "I'm here for the children's best interest so when a case ends it's always a happy ending from the best interests of the children."
