Hello! My husband and I fostered sisters for several years who are now full time back with their bio mom. The case is not yet closed, however, we are still involved (as godparents) in supporting the mom with rides, advice, etc. Our struggle is in being around when her parenting style differs greatly from how we treated the girls. When she yells or is non-nurturing it is heartbreaking for us, and we are not sure what to do in those situations. We don't want to alienate her and would appreciate any wisdom from professionals or experienced foster parents. Thank you!

Everyone has a different parenting style, I'm sure it breaks your guy's hearts, but let her be the parent. It is great that you help the mom were ever you guy's can, but she also has to learn how to make it without you guy's. Alot of the bp will use the bond foster -parents had for the good or bad, make sure you guy's know when to draw the line. Good luck
