Just to put out another angle. I just had something similar happen in my own case, and I know you are from the same state as me (can tell by your avatar!).

I found the push for RU came from the program the bio mom was living in. They actually threatened the SW to give the baby back! The program said they would kick the mom out of the program if the baby wasn't living there by X amount of days. So DSS gave into it, so they wouldn't look like the bad guys in court.

The SW and her Supervisor even confessed to me that programs have been pulling this alot, because they get extra money for the kids to live at the program. Everyone at DSS felt that this mom was no way ready, but the program put them in a corner.
