At first glance it seems to me that everyone should rally around grandma and support her efforts. I mean, come on, what if that were your grandchild?? The saying: "blood is thicker than water" may apply in this case. I agree with previous posters; fostering is about reunification - not adoption. I especially am keeping this in mind as even an adoptive parent whose adoption is not yet finalized... It is their baby until it is mine. Even so, God gives us the honor of raising children - we don't own or deserve such a treasure.

Together we have four bio-blessed arrows and two more arrows waiting to be finalized.

As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
Psalm 127
