Description
Many people say being a parent is the toughest job there is.
John DeGarmo, foster and adoptive parent, tells us just how tough it can be, having parented over 40 children.
At times he and his wife, Kelly, have cared for up to nine children at a time, many with severe trauma and learning difficulties.
Love and Mayhem is an honest and open account of the struggles, sadness and joy that comes with the job of being a parent to a traumatized child.
From the sleepless nights with babies withdrawing from drug-addiction, to the heartbreak when a child moves on to another home, and the loving chaos that comes with a large and blended family, John DeGarmo fights for the many children who have come through his home. Ideal for foster families, general readers, fostering agencies and social workers who are looking for a true to life memoir of what it really is to be a foster parent.
