Abstract:
A random sample of licensed foster parents in a central Canadian province was asked, "What are the challenges of fostering children who have different values, beliefs, and traditions than you?" In response to this question, 49 unique responses were made and grouped together by foster parents. Seven themes emerged from the analysis: understanding, respecting, learning, compromising, disagreements, child's feelings, and teaching. Several differences were found between the literature and study participants, suggesting areas worthy of future research.
