Fostering to Adoption - Paperback
Description
by Mark Moorhouse (Author)
Fostering to Adoption is a deeply moving and unflinchingly honest memoir that takes readers inside the heart of one family's extraordinary journey through the UK foster care system. Written by Mark Moorhouse, a dedicated foster parent, the book blends raw personal experience with practical insights, tracing the path from tentative first placements to the life-changing permanence of adoption.
Through a series of vivid, often humorous, and sometimes heart-wrenching chapters, Mark shares what it really means to open your home-and your heart-to children in need. From emotional assessments and rigorous panel interviews to joyful bonding, teenage meltdowns, legal challenges, and false allegations, the book offers an authentic, compassionate look at the highs and lows of fostering.
With a focus on trauma-informed care, resilience, and the power of chosen family, Fostering to Adoption shines a light on the reality behind the paperwork and policy. It's a guide, a lifeline, and a love letter to every child who's ever wondered where they truly belong.
This is not just a story of parenting. It's a story of becoming.
