If like to add onto this as a 25yo female who grew up in foster care and was never adopted. Never hold the fact that they are foster kids and are seemingly disposable to you over their heads. It's the reason I have such bad anxiety today. Anytime I would smart off or forget a chore foster parents are never shy to say 'I can have you shipped out of here with one phone call' and as a kid who already feels unwanted it's the worst thing you can do. Don't treat kids like the puppy you just got from the pound and if you decide you don't like it after a week you can just send it back or send it away. All too often this is the case.
