Hi everybody
DH and I have been approved to adopt a little boy just over 3years old. We were
so looking forward to having him home beg of next year only to be told yesterday
by our SW that this is not going to happen now and they want to delay placement
because we do not have enough experience with children! The little boy comes from
a very neglectful background and they want to make sure we can cope once placement
is done. We now have to rent a child for the day!!! (we also have to volunteer at
a nursery).
Has anyone had this bad experience just before adopting and how many times did you
have to visit nurseries and looking after a toddler before your SW was satisfied?
Thank you so much.
