Chatting With Sherri welcomes author Kathleen M. Paydo about Foster Families!

Chatting with Sherri

Fostering Love-Families are the foundation of society. When we care for and protect children, we ensure that future generations thrive as well. The devastation that abuse and neglect cause have taught us the immense impact—good and bad—that parents have on children. This book will enlighten readers beyond those directly involved with foster children to see the resiliency and potential that can be hidden in these vulnerable girls and boys. Each of our foster children has blessed our lives with their own unique story. Kathleen M. Paydo's goals are to teach others about the foster care life and to help members of the community understand how they themselves can use their talents to impact the life of a foster child. Kathleen believes that families are the foundation of society, and when children are protected and well cared for, future generations thrive as well. Kathleen is a licensed foster parent and author who promotes child-care advocacy in her home and in the community. She is a member of the National Foster Parent Association and is a registered nurse in the state of Ohio. Kathleen and her husband, Ron, have been married for thirty-five years and are blessed with four beautiful children. Kathleen and Ron have opened their home throughout most of their marriage, to 165 foster children who have no one to care for them and nowhere else to go.
