just wanted to say, that my family fostered many many many kids since the time i was a child.. me and my biological brother, father and mother shared our lives with a lot of people. We ended up adopting a girl when i was 10 and iv had the best sister in the world for the past 14 years :) there have been sacrifices, im sure you are aware of fully, but they have been absolutely worth it to see some of these guys find the support they need from the people that can give it to them.. I personally wont be a foster parent when I have kids, but I am grateful to have been apart of one growing up. Just wanted to say good for you for taking in people who in no parts their own, have unfortunate family circumstances!

Well, I have had so many people come in and out of my life.. I wont say it was 200, but it was a lot.. i remember most of them. They usually stayed for several weeks at a time.. but plenty have stayed for longer, years even. I remember feeling slightly neglected by my own parents.. and jealous. I remember telling them that after a long time and my mother telling me that she loves me more than anything in the world.. and as much as i love her, these kids want the same thing.. and they dont have it. She asked me if I wanted more people to have a family like i did.. and i said yes. she just reminded me that I was her priority in the end, but sharing can be better than keeping things to yourself. But there IS a limit... when you neglect your own kids.. thats time that you shifted your focus on what is important. Dont be fucking stupid and take in teenage girls while you have boys the same age, they will most likely fool around..lol. Also, I know exactly what Shesaidshewaslv18 is talking about. Living beyond your means in terms of raising children. Dont neglect your own kids.
As for my adopted sister, my parents tried making her feel loved just as much as us.. but it took awhile. Just treating them the same, telling them you love them. Telling them that a family is more than blood, its more about love. I have blood relatives I couldnt give two shits about, but my sister I would die for.

Hey Rich, Thanks for doing this AMA.. I am just now getting into a healthier lifestyle and I have been trying to find good things to eat that can provide the energy you are talking about along with the simplicity to make it practical for my lifestyle. What is one of your go to favorite meals to make?

You should see me take down a platter of cheese fries, pretty surreal as well.
