[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 82248, member: 3626"] Since yours is more of a pro forma thing, I'm sure it will be a very general, quick check to see things are semi-clean and safe. With 6 kids, they're not going to expect spotless. They will want to make sure there are appropriate sleeping arrangements, sufficient (and healthy) food. That kind of thing. It's also a good time to ask any questions you might have. Even though it is a family adoption, it wouldn't hurt to find out what services are available -- free and paid for. The day may come when it will be handy to know what therapists are on a sliding scale or if there is a dentist around that will charge less, etc. Ask about any meetings for adoptive parents, step-parents, blended families. Anything you can think of that you foresee possibly needing the future in the way of support, meetings, etc. [/QUOTE]
