My great grandmother also fostered kids for a decade or more. She told us a story of one kid in particular who wouldn't let go of his plate after they had dinner because he was afraid no one would ever give it back to him.
There isn't a fiber of my body that could ever deny meals for children. It's the perfect use of my tax money.
The worst we had was a three year-old girl who made a habit of stealing and hiding food, because that's how she'd survived. The habit kept up for almost a year before she realized she was safe.
