We live in Washington and have a few more visits to finish our homestudy up. We have a 5 year old and like alot of people are a bit worried about the affect of children (more than 1) in our home on her at once. We have been approached about 2 children from our social worker who are 2 and about 10 months. The 2 year old is on target socially although have drugs in system when born and the baby didnt have any drugs in system. There parental rights have been terminated so they are definately looking for a perminant home. I actually have 2 comments 1. The affect of 2 little ones on her and im a little worried because the biological mom has been diagnosed with bi-polar disorder and wondering if that would be taking a big risk accepting these children even though im sure if i saw them i would take them in a heart beat. I just want to make smart decision with my brain and not my heart that would be fair to all of us. I know of famillies that have taken children from the state and how they have affected the whole familly with issues. Dont get me wrong i love children but am a bit afraid of consequences there could possibly be on family member if we dont think it threw to the best of our ability. Any advice would be great.
