At the same time, I'm so scared that now that I've disrupted I'll never get the chance to foster again, that social services will think I'm unreliable and always find a different family.. please keep me in your prayers... I just want this day over:(
I sure hope that doesn't happen. We discussed this issue in our training and while it isn't always good, there are times when it is needed. Often at the time of placement, the placing agency doesn't have the full background on the child. Quite simply, some children need to be in homes with no other kids, or with just a mom, or just a dad, or a mom and dad. Rarely do they figure this out when they first take the kids in.
At that age, I am quite certain that they will have no problem placing them. Don't beat yourself up too much. You have to do the right thing for you first. Just like they say on the airplane, take care of yourself first and then help others. You and your family come first.
Big Hugs though. I can imagine how hard this is on you.
