Being a foster/adoptive parents is one of my aspirations. I am in a stable, committed relationship but I'm under the impression we'll both need to be working for the rest of our lives. Does fostering require a stay-at-home parent? What's the challenges of fostering as a single parent vs as a couple?

One of my big dreams is to foster/adopt a child by the time I'm 35. My spouse and I have long conversations about this, but what is the hivemind's opinion on finances, space, etc. when it comes to fostering? In my ideal world, I'll have 1 year of finances saved up that would cover expenses for me, spouse, and a foster child in the event of loss of income. And also, I think that our ideal space would be a shared dining/living space, and two bedrooms (one for the married, one for the foster). Are these reasonable/unreasonable ideas? What does the general good foster home look like?

Does anyone have any experience with adopting while living abroad?

Hey parents who are married, how did the conversation with your SO happen when you brought up adoption?
