Donate
Before I was in the picture my son's first foster placement claimed he was "unadoptable" and created all kinds of stories about him. This went on his perm. record and if I hadn't gone to the judge and said I wanted to adopt he would have stayed in the system until he was 18 (this was told me to me by the county.) The woman had him for 1.5 years and was emotionally and physically abusive to him. I didn't know him until after he was removed from her home over 2 years ago. I recently read the paperwork and the allegations she made against my son which were THE reason why he was never put up for adoption - and it's documented that EVERY allegation she made the county knew wasn't true because they had spoken to his teacher and other people who were around during the alleged incidents and found out the foster mom was lying...

While this woman didn't prevent ME from adopting she did prevent anyone else from adopting because she was the cause of him being classified as unadoptable..

I think I'm rambling on a bit here - hope it made some sense.... I'm trying not to give away TOO many specifics about my son's past...
