? about transitioning 3yr old
Hi. We are new foster/adoptive parents. We are so blessed to have been chosen as parents for a beautiful 3 yr old girl. Transition visits began the beginning of Aug and she has been doing wonderful. She is staying with a wonderful couple who has had her for over 21 months. Our question is "When do we tell her she is going to be living with us?" Do we tell her that we are going to be her mommy and daddy? Both her family she is with now and my husband and I have these questions. She is throwing fits when she has to leave our house to go back with the other couple. She does really well, but seems confused. What is the best way to handle this? Our worker tells us to basically just go with the flow. Any thoughts?
THanks.
