実の親の元で暮らせない子どもを預かり育てる“養育里親ママ” 血のつながりを超えてかわいがった里子との別れも経験…「子どもたちの幸せのために、悲しんでばかりはいられない」【ママドキュ】

MamaDoc is an observational documentary that follows a day in the life of a working mother living in Hokkaido. This peek into a real day in the life of these working mothers who juggle both child-rearing and work reveals a series of ultimate time-saving tricks for managing housework and childcare in the limited time they have. Ikumi (48), who lives in Sapporo, works at a child development support facility and is also active as a handmade artist. At first glance, they seem like an ordinary, close-knit family. But Ikumi and her children are not related by blood. They are cared for and raised by a system known as "foster care," where they care for children who cannot live with their biological parents. This time, we follow Ikumi, a mother raising two children as a foster parent. #MamaDoc #FosterCare #HokkaidoNewsUHB #Hokkaido
