[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do it and take everything one day at a time. You’re not insane; you’ll be doing what kin have done for all of human history: sharing responsibility for raising children. I am a foster parent who just sent two teen girls to live with their aunt because their mom cannot care for them due to mental illness and a cross landed the girls in care. I cannot tell you how beautifully obvious is was to me and the social workers that these kids belonged with their family. After no formal school for years and living off the grid, they are back with people who love and can care for them, and who love their mother, too. The overwhelm the aunt felt was and I’m sure I’d still huge, but day by day they are on a path to their new normal. Very best to you and your nephew.[/quote] Cross=crisis[/quote]
