When I moved to South Carolina, my parents became foster parents. We have been licensed for nearly two years in therapeutic foster care. For nearly a year, we had a 10-year-old boy who had several special needs problems. I helped him work on his speech problems, as well as other problems such as PTSD. We currently have twins who are 7 years old. They are both selectively mute, and I have worked with them through a nine month period to get them talking in different social situations. I have a passion for working with these children because I feel like everyone deserved to be loved, even if they are different from other children.
