[QUOTE="bonkers, post: 24650, member: 3521"] The problem with the system is you never know what will happen.. You have to take that leap of faith, for some of us it may be a leap we can not make... my difficult child has in the last year pushed us to the We CAN NOT KEEP DOING THIS level... but even with that it would be an option I do not personally consider a real option.. I have heard such horror stories.. I have been a respite provider for a specific family for 6+ years and seen the horrors of bith the perm placed children and the foster kids that would come and go. My friend the foster / adoptive parent we do this for is a wonderful woman and any child that lands in her home is the better for it, However I fear she is in the minority.. One boy that is no longer in her home, I have worked with his worker to continue resipte for him through his new placments has been through H***, he is ADHD/PST/Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD)/Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)/FDA etc... Not an easy kid - but he has a wonderful heart... I can not say never, but for now not a considerable option... So I know where you are comming from... [/QUOTE]
