Recently I became a Forster father
Hello I hope you are all well, I just wanted to spread love to all parents that are coping with all the problems to be a parent. I recently became a forster father (I think it's called that) because her mother was an good friend of mine, we were close but she had an car accident and didn't made it and since she didn't had really family anymore because they also past away so her daughter didn't had a place to go. I didn't want her daughter to go to an random forster home or even an orphanage because she would also lose her friends and change school and all that, so i made the decision to take her to me and i even found an death wish from her mother stating that she wants to have her daughter to move to me if something happens to her (which made it easier for me to adopt her). But now it's just really much for me because I'm a lazy person and I live alone but now I need to do much and don't know if I can handle it.
So for all who handle it you're awesome and I hope I find a way to so I can manage it.

That's an amazing thing to do for your friend, Max. Thankyou for being so very thoughtful and kind. It's certainly not easy raising a child, or changing your entire routine/ lifestyle for someone at once, but the fact you're trying, and willing to do your best at it, despite the challenges that may come in your way, is absolutely inspirational!
I hope you can seek some emotional support and encouraging company here, while you traverse through the difficulties! You got this! ❤

Hi Max,
You follow your heart as you always have and the motivation will come to you!~
Great thing you're doing !~ Take a few deep breaths and pray for your second wind :-)
Blessings, Day
Max, what you’ve done is pretty amazing, selfless, and just really a wonderful thing to do for a child. There are resources in your community who will help you. Where I live, I was part of a group who brought meals and babysat for foster families. Ask the foster program and also do a Google search for them.
You didn’t mention the age of the child, and that matters, too. Find families that foster and connect with them. Find your child’s friends and connect with parents. Find school resources. You have many resources, but often it takes looking for them.
In today’s world, people like you should be rewarded for such selflessness!! I’m so proud of you for stepping up. There are resources out there for you, so please don’t give up on this young person who so desperately needs your support and love. 😊
