[quote=Anonymous]back to the original post...I have a (sniff) almost 6 year old and 3.5, one day going to the park he asked AP if she was going to actually play with them or just sit on the bench on her phone.  Unprovoked he called her out (relationship is ok with her), and in some situations you have to either divide by 3 or 5 what a child says or multiply it by 5.  This was a multiply type situation, and we filed it away.

Few months later she was slacking and emotional (going through break up with BF, things like that) and taking it out on the kids.  Husband lit her up and just told her she had a few days to figure out what she wants to do or rematch.  She was off work mid week and out of house to figure her life out.

We are the "cool" house for AP and their friends (we think we are cool, but walking distance to Clarendon is the real reason) and have seen/counseled many AP through rematch and are very confident we are not "that" family or have "those" kids; but that is our perspective.

She talked to LCC and friends and came back after her two days off as the AP we hoped she was.  Sometimes they just need a reality check, when faced with going home either not completing program or new family they have to make a decision.  If they go for rematch you both are better off knowing sooner rather than later.[/quote]
