These are one of the most relatable shows I've ever seen, since every characters have a story to tell, not neccessarily a good one. This family is about encoutering problems and fixing them as a team, a family. One of the characters, Callie Jacobs was a foster, and her personality is that she won't accept the fact people live a hard life, that's why she always puts herself first, so she ends up in trouble pretty often. That is one of the characters who's had a pretty hard life but a good one. The Fosters also have a spin-off, good trouble
the only trouble about this show is sometimes I start to get bored in some episodes (since I usually bingewatch stuff) but at last this is a story of a family, who similar stories like this could exist in real life. It sucks that people can be homophobic, and this show is all about acceptance, and problems in the world that should be fixed.

I love the idea of this show and my four adopted kids are watching it carefully. We are a mixed family both in race, gender, and biological children. Our kids are teens and preteens now and came to us in similar fashion as the show. Please do your research to keep the show real. The show is touching quickly on hot topics and should explore both the good and bad of blending a family. My kids are blocking out the time slot for this show and we are watching as a family so that we can talk about important issues that the show brings to the forefront. My girls are huge fans of Jenifer Lopez and three of my six children are Hispanic. If the show is done correctly, than they can see where their past experiences link to the show and how choices the characters make may come up in their futures. Best of Luck with the show.
I am so happy that this show exists. It does a great job at bringing foster life to light. There are some fantastic foster families out there, but there are also lots of abuses. This show gives an example of both in a very accurate way. Bravo to the fosters for taking that leap. And bravo to the actors for doing such a fantastic job at playing such emotionally charged roles and doing it so flawlessly. I can't wait to keep viewing and see how their stories unfold. There is so much pain in the world, but the Fosters' house seems to be the cure and can be a model for all families to go by. Regardless of where you come from, you are worth love and the sense of belonging.
This show was really good. Though I will say when Noah Centineo replaced Jake T Austin, I was a little baffled but I think it ended up working. This handled some really important topics and I think they portrayed the difficulty of foster care really well. On a side note, the best episode by far is the R and J one. I did not expect to still be listening to those songs now. They are so good.
