I don't find it reasonable to have the reactions of all the workers be no big deal when parents are a no show. I'm sitting in parking lot w/4 children waiting and they come out and say "oops.........Guess we'll schedule an extra visit next week." Um..no. We were here on time on scheduled day. Now we have yet another visit next week. That is unacceptable. But if I call ahead and say we'll be gone camping, etc. We are in huge trouble????? This is Very unreasonable.
I see where you're coming from about appntmnts. If I had a child in need of many necessary appts such as therapy, doctors, etc. No problem. But random requests by bioparents is not my responsibility. If they want to Taxi them about during their visit hours, more power to them. But it certainly is not my job to appease them. It is to take care of their children.
The doctor visit is Not needed. It has been explained to her what she is doing wrong at her 2 visits a week to mess his system up but she is too prideful to stop at this time. There is nothing more I can do. The case worker, attorney, CASA, and doctor have been notified of her parental decisions.
Pictures- We've already had professional ones done. But she wanted hers done at Sears, and especially wearing her outfit for him which was old pajamas and courduroy jacket.....I'm confused??? Oh well....
Raven Song- for the first time I think we agree

I couldn't label or put question in their minds about such a serious allegation. Don't worry, I won't.
Well, wish I had a supportive, reasonable caseworker like it sounds some of you have. I just feel like they can do whatever they want when they get their kids back.
