I just wanted to add that one thing we have made a priority with M is letting her know when something major has changed, i.e., her goal in foster care went from adoption to reunification literally overnight. Thank God we did not make any promises and declarations about adopting her because everything has been such a mess, we were leary of it all working out anyway. But we were told by the cw she was definitely going back to dad, so we've let her know. I've let her know that if she ever has any questions about why or when or anything, I will answer them as best I can, but she just literally does not seem to care. It's all fine with her, no questions, she's not even curious about what he's like. (he lives out of state and she doesn't remember him).
Thanks for your feedback too ingodshands. I'm always glad to read the perspectives of former foster children.
