[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 641650, member: 1550"] GS may attach to his foster family. If he is there long enough he may want to remain there. It is not a given that a child wants to go home where he has so many bad memories. He is already seven and has been tossed around a lot. That probably has caused some attachment problems. When I did foster care I knew many kids who did not want to go home. They were afraid of all it would bring and some did not feel connected to their family. Their family had let them down...mostly mom. And that is who they think of first when they think "family." But I truly don't think he will ever again be in daughter's care. We'll see. If GS goes to you right away that would be safe, but you'd have to keep him away from daughter. Are you willing to do that? [/QUOTE]
