My older sister is going to end up loosing her kids again to the state if she doesn't watch what she's doing. It makes me so mad and frustrated because I'm just too young to take in my neices and nephew, though I wish that I could because I know I would be able to take better care of them. I'm just in college trying to get a degree and I found out tonight that someone had called DFS on my sister. Here we go again with this stuff. If I had a place to take my neices and nephew I would so be glad to take them in but I don't and I can't even keep a job because of my allergies. It's just so hard. I feel like crying because I don't want to see her loose the kids again. If she looses them this time no one will be able to see them again. I don't want that to happen but I also can't drop my life to take care of them again either. It's too hard. What should I do? I'm just so scared! I love my neices and nephew. I really do! I wish I knew what to do...

pam, what about the childrens father, where is he?

you have to remember, you are not responsible for these children, your sister and the childrens father is. you have a life of your own, so there is no pressure on you to take them in and care for them.

if it is best for the children to be taken away, then maybe they should be. i know its hard hearing that but if it makes the children safer and happier int he long run then isnt it the right thing to do. and im sure that once your sister works her self out and heals herself, then she will be able to have them back for good.

try not to get upset about it pam. i understand how you are but you have to think of it fromt he childrens point of view, and what will be best for them. your sister will be fine, she has you and your family with her. the priority is the children.

hope things improve soon
