Thank you for the concern and heads up.

I think we've started out at this fostering being extremely compliant. Now trying to backtrack and set boundaries w/ all the workers is turning out to be near impossible.

All the input has been very helpful. I will not do power struggles, think as best of the bioparents as possible, focus on their accomplishments and beautiful children, and take a day at a time.

I hope my last post was not too offensive. I just mean it really has saved my life. I've been faced w/ life and death situations and had to call them on their bluff. This baby's father is someone known for doing this kind of behavior on a regular basis. So, I just want him to do the right thing, work on his plan, and not get himself into trouble. I don't think they're giving him anymore chances, but i don't want him to take the brunt of his anger out on our family when he finds out. Which we hear he is fully capable of. Ok....sorry. All this explanation to help you understand where I'm coming from. I don't judge him. He had a horrible start in life. But am not wanting to take on his anger.

Oh. PS. So far, blood pressure is excellent Thanks for the heads up
