When you become a foster parent how do you not get attached when the child leaves?

I especially wonder when you get a baby and you care or them and grow a bond and start loving them, doesn't it start to feel like your own child. How do you give them back??When you become a foster parent how do you not get attached when the child leaves?
getting attached is part of being a foster parent if you don't get attached then you are in then wrong line of work i am speaking as a former foster child they need people like you that are loving enough to care and become attached that means they won't feel like all the people in the world are bad please don't change what you are doing they need more people like you thank you from foster kids everywhereWhen you become a foster parent how do you not get attached when the child leaves?
dont mind the child then.Make him hate you.Its not a good idea to do that.Send the child to your grandma or your sis or bro let them take care your child so u can see your child anytime you want.
I've always wondered that myself. I couldn't do it. I wouldn't be able to let go emotionally.
I don't think there is anything you can do. You are obviously a caring person. Is there any possibility of adopting this baby and maybe just restricting yourself to a certain age that doesn't require as much attention as a baby?
I don't know from experience but they are children how could you not get attached to them.they didn't ask to be born.Your humane so i would hope that people get attached to them.
Just curious are you interested in fostering or just want to know? As a foster parent, I can't stand when people say ';I couldn't do it, I'd get too attached'; and the flip side '; I don't think I could love a child thats not mine.'; I love every child that has come into my home. Yes, I get attached but, when going into this you know the goal is to reunite the child with their parents. It's part of everything you learn when becoming a foster parent. So you love them while you have them and miss them when their gone. I also look at it this way, why they were with me I gave them something to take with them for the rest of their lives. Unconditional love is the best gift you can give a child.
You can't help it. Depending on hwo long the stay was, some fister-parents maintain contact with the kids the rest of their life.





An alternatibve is permanent care. This is where you become the legal guardian of a child, but they withhold all the rights of their birth name. You aren't their parent, legally, but you are the fundamental carer. These children are permitted to leave at 18 (in Australia it is 16). Most of the time they become family, even though on-going contact remains between the child and its birth-family.





The most important aspect of foster-care is to provide a warm and caring environment for a child who is unable to live with their family for a gievn time. The ultimate goal for every carer is to see the child reunited with their family. This can be the support during the otherwise difficult period.





Good luck, fostering is made up of many bug trials, but is inter-dispersed with many little joys and triumps, anything from an evening without arguments to the free offer of hugs!





Be very blessed!
