Yes!!
This very same thing happened with us.
We got the same treatment with the cold-stare meetings and the same ignoring after. No answering our calls or emails. 5 weeks went by after the boys were moved and I still hadn't heard what the status of our family was...were we closed down?? were we back on the list and it was just no appropriate kids were available?? No idea and no matter how many times I called, no one would contact me.
I finally had enough and changed agencies. Well, we're in the process of changing. I've made arrangements to have our homestudy sent over, etc...
New agency said she has to come over and do a brief assessment of us, but much shorter than the origional homestudy. Said we should be up and running within a month or so.
I really dont' know why they bother to ask what kind of kids you feel you can handle if they are just going to give you whatever and then expect you to handle it whether it works well for your family or not.
The feeling I got was once the kids were placed with us, they expected us to deal, like it or lump it. We simply were not the best or safetst family for them, period.
Sorry you are going through this, too. The sw at the new agency said that another family from my county just changed from the same old agency around Thanksgiving...so we are not the only ones not happy with how they treated us.
