Adopting through CAS

Originally Posted By still hurting after all these yearsi am glad that you have had positive results adopting through c.a.s. however i was not so fortunate and i was not doing the adoption, i was adopted through c.a.s. to a home that never should have been allowed to adopt. my adoption process was a quick one also and i think thats where they go wrong!!how can they place the lives of children in hands of people that they only get to know for a few weeks? i know that maybe i am only one of a handful who were placed in a home that they should not have been placed and that they look at the statistics of how many successful adoptions they do however the ones that arent successful are just tossed aside and not looked at again. never looking back or thinking that they had possably taken a child and placed him/her in a situation that could cause a lifetime of problems!! i am now 32yrs old and my childhood is very much my shame. i have tried my hardest to forget about growing up in that home i was adopted to and have gone through years and years of theropy just to have a positive thought about myself!! i search for my bparents not to get angry with them for giving me up but to hopefully find a familly with whom i could posably belong to and be able to give my children an extended familly as i have not spoken to that people who adopted me since i was 13 and given back to c.a.s. i have been searching since i was 20 to no end and with nothing to show for it. i will never give up hope (hope is all i have for a familly)although with each passing day it feels like i am destined to be alone in this world. sorry for rambling i just wanted to point out that not all quick c.a.s. adoptions work out for the best. i do wish you all the luck in the world with your new familly!!

We live in Gananoque, outside of Kingston.We were also told there were no children available, or there may be a 5yr or more wait. You need to persevere!Ask about the the bi-annual presentation held in T.O. every April and October featuring 'waiting children! Once your homestudy is completed you are welcome to attend. We went to two and were amazed at the beautiful children in need of loving families. Many were virtually babies - under 2yrs. Several were sibling sets made up of ages under 2.5 and a baby!Suggestion: have your homestudy done privately and then go to CAS. This makes your family 'available for placement' while others wait to be reviewed. Even if your agency says there are no placements happening through them there are children available through this presentation. GO!Good luck to you.Email me if you want to pursue me for more info or support.Lorrainesamonty@netzero.net
