Boundaries

The bottom line--you need to tell the social worker that you need your foster kids moved--and yes, give her a definite deadline, so she can't drag her feet. If she gives you any problem with it at all, call her supervisor. If the supervisor won't listen, either go up the chain of command (CPS offices usually have social workers, then supervisors, then office managers, then area administrators, then head of CPS/DCFS/DFS, then the governor...)

As a foster parent, you are NEVER obligated to take children into your home.

Draw those boundaries so you can focus on your adopted children you aleady have.
