Foster care providing is such a joy. Why the sad face? I guess it's mainly because we wanted to adopt our last two foster children because they were in our home for about 3 years and both biological parents had given their rights up. The problem is our local district apparently didn't think we were good enough parents for these two children because our home got shut down right after the last parent gave up their rights. This is even after 11 years in foster care providing! I don't know what happened or even why. All I know is that I love those two kids with all of my heart and I will keep searching for them and fighting for them until I get an answer. Some people may not like the idea of me posting this story, but I feel that it is wrong for a perfectly happy family to be ripped apart not ever having contact again. Those two kids we got when they were just babies so I,m sure they would not remember us after a couple of years, but even if they do not remember, we will always remember them. They will always be in our hearts and in our minds and I hope they know that someday I will find them and we will be reunited. I will not give up hope and I will NEVER stop fighting to get them back in our home where I personally feel is where they belong. Maybe someday, somewhere alnog the line I can make a diffence in the way local districts treat a happy family. I think it would be really great if happy families got to stay together for as long they wished. In this particular case, it will be almost three years upcoming that my family had born torn apart. I cannot speak for everyone, but I do know that my family is one that will definitely be ruined because of this. I know that my family will never be the same again, sad, but true. I guess it's just kind of sad that there is nowhere to turn for help when something like this happens. It's a neverending battle all by itself! Just to have what you LOVE.
Im really sorry you have to go thru this? They didn't give you any reason for tearing your family apart? Have you been actively trying to get them back for 3 years? Seems to me there may be a major problem with the system? I hope you are suuccessful at the end of this long journey. Best wishes. Kathy
