So, we have had an interest in fostering, and we want to look more into it. One issue comes to mind though - what do we do about bringing an ungodly child into our home and the influence he will have on our 6 month old who we are raising in the fear of the Lord? If the family is in essence a small church, how do we reconcile having one who is doing evil things in our home knowing we can't discipline him or her? I'm not worried about it for our sake, but for our son's sake. Bad company corrupts good morals. If our son sees him or her acting in wicked ways, he might be tempted to join in, wouldn't you think? I don't want him to be exposed to such things if I can help it, but I want to care for orphans as well. Any thoughts to help clarify this for me would be great. Thanks!
