Just a small question, presently the mom is picking on us evevn though we strongly feel that she is not talking in a bad way about us infornt of the children but both are experiencing pre and post trauma after their meeting with the mom. I think that this is the issue that is affecting the child mostly but accoring to authorities in most cases it is of utmost importance that the children continue to meet their mom. Do you agree with this or am I the only one seeing the other coin's face ?

Even if a child is happy with you and happy to visit with mom, they will react just because of transitioning between the two places.
Our ds loved us and was ready to move home with us, but also was secure in his foster home. His behavior became less focused in school and more restless for his fp as we transitioned him to us.
It's not normal for a child to go between two parental figures or two homes. They are going to react--it doesn't mean the visits with mom are bad for them--it's normal to object to having to go back and forth and it comes out in noncompliant behavior.
my 2 cents--
