What about the children?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : HumptyDumptyY2K : One Thread

If/When TEITRAH, what will you do about the children? Will you consider being a foster parent to roaming orphans? Will your community consider setting up an orphanage?

Consider some of the alternatives...like roaming gangs of teens...

We've invited many families with all ages of children among them. We've had many, many children pass through our home informally for different lengths of time. Once you have three children around, there is little difference between three and ten other than the amounts of food you have to put on the table. If there are stray children, there ARE stray children even now, we'll do what we can.

Have raised six of our own children, one nephew and countless others. Will/are prepared to help another 1/2 dozen or more if need be (God let it only be a slight BITR!)
