How do you spell fallsterhomes?
The phrase made up of two words is spelled "foster home". To foster means to take in, to care for, to look after. In human life, to foster a child means that an adult or two adults take in a child to care and provide guidance to the child in place of the child's parents. "Foster homes" used to simply be called "children's homes" in the late 1800s to early 1900s. These "children's homes" were often caring for as many children as could fit into one private residence (house). Slowly, the concept of a "foster home" became more of one home with two adults caring for one or several children. Foster parents had to apply with the State where they resided in order to take in children, and the State sets limits on how many "foster children" can be raised in one "foster home" with a "foster parent" (or plural, two foster parents). At first, only married couples could be foster parents, but now many single adults assume the foster parent role. In exchange for providing "foster care", the adult(s) are paid a set sum of money per each child under their care.
What was the gender of the children in foster care?

In Tennessee, the duration children remain in foster care can vary significantly based on individual circumstances, such as the child's needs and family situation.
