I had a friend who said I should spank my daughter when she has a tantrum, but I didn’t want to because I was in foster care when I was a kid and I didn’t want to be violent with my own child. Being in foster care taught me that safety is important, but kids also need emotional connections with their family.
I was placed in foster care as a teen and lacked close relationships. I wanted to give my daughter a different childhood.
