To answer you both at once my last child we were supposed to adopt but dcf took her randomly blaming my Lyme and pain as reasons though I had gone swimming with her for three hours each summer day and played with her all of the time. The state will not place another child with me despite an appeal that we lost. I am a liability in their minds though for no reason. So they have my foster daughter in a home which is an old mobile home with a 25 year old. Give me a break. But that is another thread. I can't fight them and I am too poor for an adoption. I could get a home study done and adopt privately but I fail to see the money for that.
