    About this ebook

    Mycroft Green can’t pinpoint the deciding factor that propelled her to become a foster parent. But for most of her adult life, she has helped children and she knew she wanted to continue, especially assisting those who might face challenges. In Give that Child a Chance, she narrates her story of becoming a foster parent.

    Mycroft Green discusses her motivation, reviews the training required, shares stories of some of the children she cared for, and imparts advice for others seeking to become a foster parent. She tells that being a foster parent has been like a roller coaster ride. Every child is unique; they each have their quirks and their troubles. With some, it’s an uphill struggle, and with others it’s a downward slide.

    Give that Child a Chance gives insight into foster care and the important role of a foster parent. Mycroft Green is grateful she’s been able to help children navigate their issues and help them gain the tools they need to restore peace in their lives.
