I have spent a lot of time with foster children over the years - kids for whom I have not necessarily acted as a foster parent.

Too many children in foster care are falling through cracks. Be a hero, take the time learn about adoption today.

When I was growing up, my parents took in foster children. From a young age, I learned that there are a lot of children in need.

My husband and I had to raise five of my younger brothers and sisters. They lived with us. We sent them to school.

I moved up over Lower East Side and I was adopted by eight foster parents; I lived all over New York City with these parents, man, till I was about ten years old.

I've got one young family by the first wife, with four children.

Well, you know, my wife and I have eight children. We have now 19 grandchildren.

I don't have children, but I have 17 nieces and nephews, and they more than make up for anything that I can do. I have a stepdaughter, and I adore her to pieces, and I think about adoption. There are so many kids at different ages and stages that need families.

Many children in the foster care system are often in the midst of a family challenge.
