Mama Let's Talk: Christina & Elaine
Apr 08, 2021
Fostering - a shortcut to parenting or an act of selfless love?
During what proved to be an emotional Mama Let's Talk Episode Donna had a chat with three amazing women. Foster parents Christina Zammit La Rosa and Elaine Brincat were joined by Laura Darmanin from the Directorate of Children and Youths to talk about the process involved to become foster parents and the rollercoaster of emotions that they need to deal with.
According to Christina, the toughest, yet ironically, the most rewarding part of fostering is the reintegration process, where thanks to the intervention of foster families and the Directorate's work, the biological parents are given the tools to get back on their feet and care and provide for their children.
Follow Fostering Service - Malta and contact the Directorate for Children and Youths should you like more information about fostering.
Thank you Christina, Elaine and Laura for your dedication and all the time and energy you put into preparing for this interview.
