as far as adoption, I went through the state and adopted a child who came to us as a foster child. We adopted him when he was 3 years old and I took in a lot of other children as well..
And trust me, we went through A LOT to become foster parents, and again when we adopted greg. He came to us at 12 months old, he has fetal alcohol syndrome and is now 21 and still needs us to help him and always will. He just now walked in here and asked me how to address an envelope. I have showed him before many times.
You know how many homes he was in by the age of 12 months? our home was the 5th!!!!!!!! He went from his birth mom to foster care, then back with bio, then at 6 months back to foster care, then to another foster home and was there for about 4 months and was severely neglected and then placed with us. He weighed 19 pounds at 12 months old!
My point was obviously missed when talking about the rescues I had dealt with and the one I used to do rescue and fostering for cocker spaniels.
Again, I never said all rescues. |
Thank you for the clarification. Not all rescues are great...just like not all breeders are. Just the way things are.
I hope you find Mindy a home where she is loved as much as you love your son, Greg.
He was lucky to have come to you.
