They said she's been taking parenting classes.

Also that now after 7 months, she has been clean for I don't know...I think 30 days or somehthing.

That's great. Just... Let's keep the Foster family bashing down please. They had her sign some lengthy statement on do's and don'ts of visits including not correcting daughter about the "mommy" issue. They asked how it went yesterday and if it got better. Nope.... She corrected her more than 7 times just yesterday. Ya, she's really concerned about losing visits. Because she knows that they would Never do that to her. So .... carry on. I just politely reminded the case worker that she's going to have to deal with whatever she creates when it comes to RU. So if not for her daughter, stop the nonsense for herself so she'll have less issues to deal with when FD returns to her.

Anyway, it was kinda sad to see her sabatouging (sp?) her relationship w/ her daughter by all the fake over the top excited to see you behavior. FD refused to let go of my hand. I tried to remove it, but she looked at me scared and started tearing up. She clearly did not want to go, as all the CW, CASA, and others watched. FD likes calm, predictable people. So.... This over the top nicey wicey "mommy" game was quite scarry for her. I just wish I could reassure her bmom to just be herself, plug away at her plan, and don't worry. No need to bash. Your daughter is very smart and knows you're her bmom. She won't forget. ..... good and bad that is.....
