[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get how one person can tell another person that they have to take in a child. Or even have such a strong opinion about what is right and wrong in this way. This is in regard to pp who did not take in toddler relative. We are talking about the care of children! In my opinion not willing or feeling incapable of taking in a relative's child/children = disqualified! Think about it.[/quote]

Ok, but what if it means the child goes into the foster care system and lives with strangers?  [/quote]

Sometimes trained and well-equipped strangers are a better choice than relatives who have no experience with kids or are overloaded with the ones they already have. [/quote]

I wonder what the kids would prefer. [/quote]

Unless the relatives was someone they actually saw with some frequency, the strangers are probably not much different in a child's mind. My kids would consider a relative they saw once a year or less to be the same as a stranger.[/quote]

How old are your kids?  [/quote]
