As previously mentioned, I'm a foster parent, I take what are considered high risk kids, down town east side street youth, kids the system pretty well considers a write off.
Last night I had a pre Christmas drink with two off my old kids, now in their mid twenties, ones a kitchen manager, the other halfway through his B.A at UBC, I got a call from another lad today, radar operator in the navy.
I'm not a miracle worker, given half a chance these kids do fine, unfortunately they are rarely given a chance.
