Reason being she was over-heard talking to a person about a incident that may or may not have taken place in a previous foster home. The child had been told not to discuss the incident but at 13 did. Right or wrong do you think she should have been moved? Our thoughts are we should of all sat down as a family with the agency & talked about the whole mess, then decided what was best. She was just packed & moved not a word said to the child by anyone other than us. We really care for this girl & are now looking into adoption which she is free for. But we don't want to adopt out of emotions. How long does it take to get the ball started. We love children. Our 2 daughters a raised with families of their own & are very supportive about our thoughts for adopting this girl.
