If they hadn't moved her when they did with almost notice, I would not have lasted another week. You need to protect your ability to continue protecting children. You may keep these kids and help them but at what cost? Could/would you continue once they are gone on the DFS timeline? Can you continue to protect children if you are unemployed because you've missed so much work? If you are in it for the long haul, you need to take a long picture of the situation. Sometimes what is best is what is hardest. Pray over them and let them move on.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16348025510436659447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27419577.post-44366550188943164082009-05-05T17:26:00.000-04:002009-05-05T17:26:00.000-04:00Please don't tell me that YOU'RE feeling guilty.

Weepy and Weepy Jr. will be fine and God's got this completely under control - remember , it's not up to you whether they stay or go. GOD decides that, and manipulates circumstances to make sure they go where HE wants them. You've done your part in this, friend. And you've done a darn good job.The Brothershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04515591953736573120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27419577.post-80931475957198308112009-05-05T16:02:00.000-04:002009-05-05T16:02:00.000-04:00Good for you.

You have to do what's best for you and your family. Period. And the SW has never been remotely accommodating re: Baby Weepy and the time all his medical needs have taken up. How are you supposed to work with someone who won't work with you? Seems to me your hands were tied. <br /><br />Here's hoping that your spring and summer are much quieter and more relaxing than they would have been.

We are close enough by to help out.But,then as I read on I feel your frustration and don't want to get drawn into the mess and be doing them a favor. They should be providing respite,transportation.But we know it does not work out that way.We are also being side swiped by kiddos workers right now,just things that make no sense.About the former fosters.It makes me sad,as I wish this was an uncommon event,but it seems we are all mistreated and exposed to things that clearly make no sense.Your family and job security have got to come 1st right now.Thats nothing to be ashamed of.Wish I could offer you more help,just let me know if I can.Lovingmyamazinglifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17952752879754566855noreply@blogger.com
