First just wanted to say thank you fo...Hi Allison. First just wanted to say thank you for your posts. I love reading them. Sometimes when I read them and your going through something it helps me because I know I'm not the only mom going through issues at times. I have an 11 yr old with Aspergers. Sometimes we need to be reminded I think. Anyway, these last few posts have really touched me because I just started working at a Foster Care/Adopotion Agency. I have always wanted to work with kids, especially abused/neglicated kids. Well I have only been there a little less then a month and even though I love it, I'm finding it difficult to sometimes not get attatched. I just want to love on them more because I know what happened to them. No child should ever have to endure what some of them do. I totally understand the feeling you are going through about you love them but not like your own. Maybe it's god's way of protection our hearts. We have a little boy who is in a full body cast because he had to have surgery for a hip birth defect. The foster and myself fear that that's the only surgery he will have since he and he's brother will be going back home next month. It's not fair at all. It too makes me sick at my stomach. I just hate how unfair it is for some kids to never have a chance if they keep getting shuffled in the system. They never asked for it and they do not deserve it!!! Anyway, I just wanted to share that with you and Iet you know that you do help and people are listening. Anyway, thanks again for your posts!
