Foster parents have the right to file for what is called De Facto Parenting status and because he is so young the typical 4 month period of a child being in your care does not apply. The way the laws around de facto is wrote there is no specific time period that is required but 4 months is typically how long you need to have the child in your home for before even being considered. TPR is in March. Permanency is what foster care is about, either adoption or reunification. In 2009 my county was investigated and found guilty of negligence and my county literally continues to flat out loose children who are supposed to be under the eye of csw.
