Thanks to all of you for your support and information. I did understand what fostering was when this all began and thought I could do it, as I am a teacher who loves her kids but has to release them each year. I was prepared to give our FD back to her mom etc. as we knew that was likely to happen but the problem and dashed hopes occurred because the agency was not forthcoming with information and did a terrible job. They told us from the beginning that our FD had adopted siblings and that they weren't going to place her there because she didn't know them and she was doing very well with us. Due to this, we never considered that she would be pulled unless she was returned to the mom or a family member that the mother wanted her placed with. This came out of the blue and as a total surprise and is completely opposite from what they told us at the beginning and that's where the frustration comes from. If this is how it was wit our first FD, how could it be any better if we get another child? The agency doesn't have it together and this is the only one that is available in the county.
