Ohio state and federal law REQUIRE that adoption MUST be the first "option" that is, permanency goal, recommended if RU fails. TPR and adoption are a child's right. Children have a right to a safe, legally secure, and permanent home. Yet you say it's not even considered. Your post shows that your training led you to think that you weren't even allowed to discuss adoption? That you had to ask permission? Surely these clear contradictions show that something is deeply wrong with how the cases are handled in your area.
