Speak with the GAL about having the parents sign a "consent to adopt" listing you as the adoptive resource.

I am a social worker for CPS and used to post quite awhile ago. I stopped posting because while others asked for a social worker perspective when I gave it no one really seemed to want to hear what I had to say. I just came back to this board again yesterday to give it another try.

That being said. The consent to adopt idea is a good one. However, I would make sure that it didn't affect any adoption assistance/subsidy that might be available ( unless that isn't something that you require) In MN where I am the consent to adopt will allow for the adoption to a certain person but there is no adoption assistance payments or medical that go along with it.
