Foster homes can be really scary places and no they don't keep brothers and sisters together.

yeah, they try to. but sometimes parents only want to adopt one kid not 2, or 2 kids not 3. its up to agency, the parents adopting, and what kind of situation the kids are in. if one kid is handicapped and the other isnt, its more likely that they will get split up!

Generally it just depends on the agency and your situation. Most foster families dont take in more then three kids so its sometimes hard to keep kids together.

I think (around here anyway) that they try to. If someone had 8 siblings it might be hard to place them together, but I do believe they try to. :)

Of couRse they *ALWAYS* tRy, but sometimes it just doesn't woRk out that way. HoweveR, they CAN make it so they can only be adopted as a family - meaning one peRson would have to adpot all five siblings, you see? I hope this claRifies! =D

Hey, foster homes don't always keep families together, they might try, but it doesn't always happen. It really could if the family that is fostering you is willing to take in your brothers and sisters as well. So it's not really a straight answer, but a 50 50 chance of getting put together with your brothers and sisters. I really hope I helped! **cookiesncreamc09**

DangerNerd answered Tuesday May 31 2005, 11:10 am:
Hello there,

It depends of many things, but mostly the foster home. Some only have space/time for one child, some have the ability to care for two.

I think it also depends on if the situation is temporary, like you are going back to your parents in a while, but for right now something happened and you need to get away.

You should always ask to be kept together if at all possible. Make sure both of you ask them all the time. :-)

DangerNerd.

P.S. I was in a foster home... More than one... And if you get into a bad situation, you tell everybody. I mean everybody, teachers, police, doctors, people in the laundromat, anyone who will listen. Don't stay in a place where you don't feel safe.
