Considering a placement

MyColonyNJ

It is a long story.  But in a nutshell: I am on another board, there is a foster mom (FM) who just got placement (last week) of a little boy the same age as her bio kid.

The kids are not getting along, to the point where it is not good for her bio.  There is no aggresive behavior, just 2 kids who are at an age that each need some attention.

I have been going back and forth with the current FM; and he seems like a good kid, just not in the right placement.

I am calling his case worker tomorrow to get more info.  But if all goes well, we might accept him as a placement.  It is very possible that things do not fall into place, and we do not get him, but we will just have to wait and see.

Oh, and this post is not a bash the current FM type of post.  So, please do not make any comments regarding this.  This is just give an update on us.

Also have the current FM call as well. If they don't fit together, they just don't fit. Good for you for considering it.

oh TRUST me, the case workers have been contacted.  When I call in the AM, I am sure they will be thrilled to hear from me.  Again, it is a long story

I think this is great - when you know in your gut its right, you have to at least try. GL!

Good luck. I hope it works out well. Very exciting. How old is the little boy?
