I am now certified to adopt and licesed to foster care
I have had several almost foster placements. I spend all the time visiting and getting to know the chldren then just before they are to move in something happens.
I now have a chance to go to red file for a boy and girl sibling group. Problem is the girl was sexually abused and has acted out on younger children. She is in therapy.
In class I thought they said that you will not get an other placement if you have sexually abused child expecially if they act out. But I am looking to start a family of abut 4 to 6 children. I come from a large family (youngest of 11). I like large families. Each time I contact the family specialist I expalin why I am concerned that I want to be a repeat adopter and don't want something like adopting a sexually abused child stop me. But she does't really do anything except ask where did I hear I coudln't adopt or foster again if I adopt a sexually abused child. I told th MAPP classes and then I hear nothing from her. Then she send an email saying how cute the kid are. That is great but I am worried about what is the chances of the child adopting my young neices/nephews and that i can adopt again. Sorry long post
