Hi. I am totally new in here, only been a licensed foster parent for a couple of months.
I feel that sibs should be placed together, but that can't always work out, so the second best option would be to let there be contact between siblings, especially if they were together before being taken by DCFS. If sibs weren't ever together, I would hate to see social workers ripping kids out of homes where attachments had already formed. I think it totally depends on all the details- not one situation is the same.
My DH and I just met 2 sibs today who will hopefully be placed with us next week. But now, we are wondering, is the house big enough, car big enough...all those thoughts. I suppose those thoughts are normal when you go from a family of two to four just like that!
