Your right about people changing things and messing with peoples lives. The state is great about it. Alot of the case workers are book smart, they don't know anything about dealing with real life.

You can not learn about this stuff in a book.. Can you.. I have read pages on the net that tell social workers on how to ‘counsel’ women considering giving a baby up.. some of it is very scary..

I worked with a girl at a restraunt as a waitress, while she was studing to be a caseworker for the state. She didn't have children, and she didn't have any patience with kids either. Yet she was making straight A's in her class. To me that's very scary.

The sponsor in twelve steps has walked the walk.. and they know.. I knew when I sponsored in Alanon.. I knew what it was like to have an acting out loved one.. and I could say words that did not have an agenda.. or I hope they did not have an agenda.. a judgment..

Yes I am hanging in there, its hard at times, but I know in my heart when the time is right I will find my son, and we will be back together.

This is what happened with me.. Thirty five years.. and it happened.. and it was the right time.. He had talked with no one from the CC agency or even his aparents.. he just connected with me because he had looked at his children and wanted to know more..
