Yes, I would take a 100 if I could....we have 6 early & mid-teens...then the 2 we are in the process of tpr/adoption and then always have my 3rd spot filled with short-termers...mostly newborns, which I would love to continue...but I am only licensed for 3 because state regs say no more than 9 kids combined in any home...though 3 of are teens are only half timers (50% time with thier dad)....the workload is huge also especially with a medical baby.....sometimes I think exceptions need to be made about the sibling laws(especially when half sibs and NO bond)....I did tell CW to ask state person that if the 2 were kept seperate we would be very open to lifelong sibling visits/contact.....well see....1 person to make life altering decisions, just doesnt seem right to me.
