My grandson lived with me from age 2 to age 5 he was placed in a foster home for adoption.Eight months later,he said to me at my last visit to him in Nov2000.not to let him go with the parents that want to adopt him. He was begging and crying. Before the adoption was finalized in Nov 2000I petitioned for adoption. I was denied the consent to adopt by the Department of Children and Families. They state they made the placement and will not consider and will not consent to my adoption petition.They also automatically stopped my visitation. Their policy states relatives are a preference. I am going to appeal, and with a different attorney. I have had court ordered visitation with him. It was stopped by the dept of children and families when I petitioned for adoption without a reason and without an order. What is in the childs best interest? Can you give me your opinion?Thanks.
