more on the dss system

well, this past week the good folks at social services finally decided to change the baby's goal to adoption. it had been reunification which stills blows me away. why that was ever an option in this case is beyond me. back in june--read the post, lazy ass--i said that they were supposed to change the goal "soon". i guess in dss time that 5 months for a no brainer decision isn't a long time. but for us, who have been waiting for them to show up and take him away, it has been a long freakin' time.

but he is well on his way to becoming ours now. we need to wait at least 6 months to adopt him but that will fly by. in the life of this blog it is only 2 posts, lol.

and another freak situation at the dss. we have to reapply for our funding that came with the boys because they are special needs. and they need documentation to prove that the boys still have special needs. they don't have colds for gods sake. they have mental disablities and delays. that are not getting better. and will probably never get that much better. but they have to have their documentation because perhaps a miracle has taken place.

i now finally understand why they keep giving the kid's mentally retarded, alcoholic simple parents more and more chances. they don't have the proper documentation to prove that they are still mentally retarded and alcoholic and simple. lol if they would just provide that proper paperwork everything would be golden. FREAKS.
