I know you are hurting right now, but I doubt it was a case of a callous child care workers. Their hands are just so tied by the system! If the parent has done the bare minimum of what the court requires, the CW has no real choice. And unfortunately, the opinon of the child on where they want to be doesn't really count until they are over 12 or 14 or whatever. It doesn't matter what the child wants. It doesn't matter if she is thriving where she is. All that matters is if the parents have done what they were supposed to - so if there is a problem (and I believe there is) it is in the laws that set the standards so very low for the bios. (after all, if they could judge it based just on where she is doing "better", we all might be in danger! Whose to say that my own children might not have it even "better" down the road with my neighbour? But they can't remove them from me just for that).
