@GdnSocialCare Great program, shows need for high quality training & ongoing support, also vital role of preparation & matching

@GdnSocialCare Also shows how introducing a new foster child ( sibling or not) to a fledgling placement can cause huge damage

@JerryLonsdale1 it showed the reality of a lack of carers, training and resources. Frustrating to work in, but worse for the kids.

@TACTCare Doesn't justify their language, lack of commitment or nativity. How did the LA prepare them? They let Amy down, badly.

Sad to see so much criticism of foster carers #protectingourfosterkids. Mostly from people who never would/could do it themselves #FCF2015

@GdnSocialCare #ProtectingOurFosterKids Poor decision to show this. A poor example of the good work done by FC for children daily. Saddening

@GdnSocialCare Very honest documentary highlighting difficult issues for all involved. Children in care should b a concern for all society

@IDickson258 Amy said she wants to be part of the family not a placement #ProtectingOurFosterKids

@GdnSocialCare -felt like text book of how not to #protectingourfosterkids . State v badly failing as a 'corporate parent' to these children

As a foster carer, I'm experienced with teenagers. It's rewarding, heart breaking and HARD but you can't give up #ProtectingOurFosterKids

@GdnSocialCare We only saw fragments of the real issues! Easy to be critical but fostering is tough work! #protectingourfosterchildren
