[quote=Anonymous]We have an 8 yo foster daughter. It's likely that she will leave this summer (likely before I'm 20 weeks and very likely before 25 weeks). My hesitation is that she is already processing a lot in her life, so I feel like I should keep life as simple as possible. I don't want her to feel like she'll never meet the baby or worry about how the baby will affect her (since it won't due to the timing of her leaving and the baby not coming until late December, but I'm not sure that would keep her from worrying). How would she feel about me growing a baby she'll never know? She's a worrier and can be emotionally volatile. She's not very observant, so I would be surprised if she figured it out on her own (she's also ESL, so there is a language barrier as well- it would be unlikely for her to overhear someone discussing it and understand them). However it feels wrong to keep something this big from a family member. Thoughts?[/quote]
