I understand. My very first placement was the daughter of a meth addict who, among other things, had basically given her 13 yr old to the 19 yr old son of a couple so that they could live with them. Fd saw absolutely nothing wrong with that. Or the fact that they'd been homeless for over 2 years, or were living in a travel trailer without utilities. Or anything else.
Black and white thinking cannot be reasoned with.
I am sorry that you are facing this. And you didn't say no because you were thinking about how you would feel if you never got to see your kids again.
It's called compassion.
