My situation is a little different but my oldest nephew who was 14 last year had to be removed, over the course of the last year I've dealt with a lot of people who have tried to make me feel guilty, but in my heart of hearts I knew what was right and what was wrong. I've also had to deal with people who seem to have my nephews "best interests at heart" but really contridict what I believe to be right. One year later, yesterday, he was admitted to a residential treatment program which is where he should have gone last year.
When kids come with a lot of baggage, it takes the right fit and it takes the child's desire to make it work. Try not to let the CW's get to you, you've made their case load more difficult, but that's their job.
