Yeah, well, I'm all for that. Did I mention that the placement worker AND the casemanager for my 2 disrupted boys don't have any bio kids either. Nothing. No experience with any kids whatsoever.

Pardon me. Learning about kids in books and stuff in Social Worker College and living with them 24/7 are two different things.

And these are the ladies that were supposed to be giving ME (A parent of 16 years) guidance??? And then they dissed me for disrupting??

Yeah, well....have yourself a couple of kids and call me later with some advice is my line of thought.
