[QUOTE="house of cards, post: 120809, member: 2005"] Vicki, I understand fostercare was very important to you and you were GREAT at it. If my D cost me my foster home I would be crushed and angry. I am afraid of the impact my D could have on my kids and yet I am still proceeding with my last childs adoption...I know most people don't understand it, sometimes I question the "right" of doing it. I know I feel a huge responsiblity to protect any of the other kids and therefore will do whatever is needed to protect them (hospital/cops). I imagine you also feel responsible for bringing Jayme and the others into this mess. But lots of kids don't show their mental health problems until their teens and people have younger kids...they just have to deal with what they have been dealt. Your family isn't that much different. I know it hurts but Aly is your child and you need to find your way to help her and Jayme. Let the fostercare go, you might be surprised at the life you can make beyond it. It has brought you 2 gifts, don't regret a moment. [/QUOTE]
