You know I want to say first off I am trying my best to be a supportive foster mom. I love the boys and I am helping them with their school etc. I give the mom colorings the boys do and pictures I tell the boys Mom and Dad love them even though they never ask.....
But it frustrates me....close to angers me, when I hear how Mom is not complying with things to get her boys back. Leaving paperwork behind refusing to talk to sw's etc. Why? Seriously you would think she would be bending over backwards to get the boys back. Par for the course? Will she ever get her butt in gear? ugh
OK back to watching Happy Feet with my penguin obsessed brood hehehe
About Me

- Here I am now... The mother of 4 wonderful boys, present and former foster mom to seven boys!! True at times there is an overload of testosterone and fart humor...but I muddle through well enough hehe. I am spoiled too, there is no lack of gentlemen opening doors, car doors etc... of course that balances out with no lack of bad aim in the bathroom! The news that shocked the world....? We are expecting a baby girl in March 2008!! I am a stay at home mom. I work more now than I did when I held a "real" job. Hubby is in the Navy. I cannot convey how proud I am of him. He is truly the man of my dreams and a better husband than I ever thought I deserved. Well that is the general overview of me ;) enjoy the blog. Don't know something? want to know? ASK. I love comments to my ramblings too.

Often, these parents are so emotionally stunted that they simply don't have the maturity to realize how serious all of this is. It is extremely maddening and heartbreaking to watch and be a part of this lack of commitment.
It's very frustrating, and all too common. I didn't read back to see if you said why the kids are in foster care but, it doesnt really matter. The parent who has lost custody often has so many emotions involved with their side of the situation that they just dont do anything. Part of that is feeling like a failure, feeling like their kids dont love them anymore, feeling that the kids are better off in foster care than with them, then the other side of those thoughts, like they were cheated, that its not fair, a conspiracy.
I forgot to mention the real reason I commented in the first place. Cyber bouquet of flowers and a hug to you for understanding that the kids love their parents no matter what.
