I'm not sure you are going to like my answer=/ As foster parents, you have very little rights.
The time frame of 2 months isn't very long for you to have a leg to stand on.
We had our FD for 13mths - since she was 3 weeks old. We were so willing to adopt. Our bio children had bonded - baby had bonded with us. But then relatives came forward and now she is gone. It was heartbreaking.
The family didn't know she was in care---and I truly believe them.
It's been 2 months since she has been gone and our
hearts are healing. We are going to visit her this weekend with her new family (who are wonderful and allow us to be aunt and uncle).
I do believe that if at all possible, it is in child's best interest to be with their family. Siblings are a vital part to her best interest.
I can read your pain and anxiety over this situation. I know--I've been there. It's hard when we put our bio children through the emotional rollercoaster as well. But children are resiliant and you just need to keep reminding them that these children are here as long as they need us but there might be a time when they will have to leave. As sad as that is.
I wish your family the best. Hang in there - hope for the best but start preparing your heart for the worse.
