This wasn’t ‘KNOWN’ at the start? Only in govt.
>>I get that foster homes are intended to be a temporary arrangement, but it’s heartbreaking nonetheless.<<
We’re already talking 5 yrs. here. How ‘temporary’ is temporary??
Course, even ones OWN children are on a ‘temporary’ basis...~18yrs./when they leave the nest /s
Again, we find GOVT in the mix and having it all FUBAR; instead of making the process of adoption EASIER, govt places hurdle upon hurdle upon....Yet, have NO qualms re: welfare brood-mare and child-neglect/endangerment/abuse.
I'm not arguing the point here... I just wish the foster parents had attempted early on to adopt her.
