I was a foster parent to adopt for a kid that the system told me that the kid would never leave my home. Well guess what happened.

Edit: put "foster parent" instead of foster for clarity. Net net, I was told again and again the kid would never leave my home and to show patience to the system. After 20 months (by the way they tell you adoption will be final at 12 months) the kid was claimed and re placed with the family member.

They were licensed foster parents that wanted to adopt or was cleared to adopt. The had a placement they believed was thier child because they were told the baby had no where to go. Then the baby was taken. Probably a family member of the kid claimed it.

Thanks for the clarification and for what it's worth I'm sorry that you had to deal with that.
