i was afraid of that, but hope it's not the case. If it will damage the child to move back to the bio family, if the child has been visiting the parents for 2 years and have no bond or attachment to them, and they still RU them, I just think it's sad.
no, what would be sad is making parents work a case plan that takes two years and then using the time they’re in care as an excuse or factor in not reunifying them with their children. The goal is reunification whenever possible. If the parents do the work, then they should reunify. The child bonding with the foster parents is never enough reason for a TPR and you shouldn’t want that either unless you’re selfish.
Foster kids that spend a year or more with foster parents are obviously going to have some kind of bond with the foster parents and an attachment, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be reunified.
Many kids have strong bonds with their bio parents and are placed with foster parents upon removal and expected to cope and be resilient even with being taken from the only family they’ve known. It’s necessary. Well, the same is true in reverse.
