How rare/common is it for foster parents to allow their foster kids to ...

after they age out?

Have you heard of any that help pay for college; walk a former foster daughter down the aisle; put them in their will.

I am just curious if this ever happens.

One of the ladies who instructed on my intro course as a foster parent had about a half dozen children over the years that maxed out in while in her care. All but one of them remained a defacto part of the family to the point where she and her husband walked two of them down the isle when they eventually got married. The one that did not remain a close part of their family had other mental and medical issues and went to a long term adult care facility. Although he doesn?t recognize them any more, they still visit him and treat him as if he was the part of their family he would want to be if he was able to.

I?m not sure how rare it is but I would suspect that it does happen.
