I am in kinship/foster care with my nephew and we are in the adoption stage?

28/07/2010 admin 3 comments

My nephew is 15 months old and we are having a hearing later this month to terminate my brother and sister in laws rights (she is a drug addict and he is crazy). I have 3 children of my own 11,9 and 7 years old and she is pregnant again. I really want a girl but I go crazy with the 4 children I have now.not to mention the expense of raising 4 children Should I consider this unborn child or am I crazy?

In all honesty you should keep the children together. It’s what’s best for them. Even though dad is crazy and mom is a druggie – they will still love their parents and still have a bond with them. Losing them will be hard enough – but keeping the sibling with them will be what’s best.

in the future, i hope you don’t refer to his DNA as “a drug addict and a crazy person.”

if you ‘dis’ his dna, you’re dissing HIM.

This is a question no one else can answer for you. Great for you that you are taking your nephew! I have experienced this with a great niece, I have no regrets because I know her life is so much better than it would have been.

Wanting a girl should not be your basis for considering taking the child she is now pregnant with. Also remember that your 3 children will have an adjustment to these family addition(s) and two very young children take require lots of time.

My best regards to you whatever you decide!
