That's what worries me Munky. Her health (physically and depression) were not good and she took breaks many times but this is the longest. Her last post was June of 2013, unless she pm'd anyone.
Thanks, CG. We are doing our best. And if I vent it will be because of their circumstances, their grandparents and the government system. The two of them can be frustrating but it is not their fault at all.LP, they're such little people with such big problems. I hope you're able to help them find some semblance of normalcy. I'm sure you and TB will give them lots of love. Good luck with this tough situation. (hugs)
I have a friend who (with her husband) fosters children with special behavioural needs. I don't know how they do it as he is 71 and she's in her late 60s and they must have had dozens of foster kids through their hands over the years. They have 2 grown up children of their own and 6 grandchildren. Some of the foster children they'd had have been real problem cases but they have a good success rate. They must be good at what they do as one of their foster children who is now grown up and working still lives with them and another who lives independently still visits regularly and they are both charming young men.Thanks, CG.

Tonight the battle we picked was bedtime and sleeping in "your own beds". It took until 11:00 and a lot of tears but it worked. Wonderful Violet curled up on the girl's bed with her, tucked right in against her back. The girl giggled with joy and tears instantly stopped. I love my dog! In fact Vi is still in their room on the floor. She doesn't even know that she has her own bed set up again in our new makeshift bedroom. She wants to be with them because they need her just like when I am not well. Did I say I love my dog.
Well, I am very tired and hope that I can sleep. We have nothing planned for tomorrow except some shopping and maybe we will take them to Steveston. It is a waterfront community with a wonderful off leash dog park right along the river and lots of places to shop and eat. I am hoping for fish and chips off the pier followed by the best hand churned ice cream you have ever tasted.
That sounds more like a threat than a promiseHang in there LP! We know you're doing a good deed, a great service for this little family. Once you help them work through this bump in the road we'll recommend you to solve the world's problems. See you back here full time soon. Till then, a hug to help you get by.
He hasn't been around since the 21st. Before that there were 3 and 6 day gaps in his posts.
Anyone know his situation?
His PM box is full so I can't PM him.

I've missed him too. OHHHHH YOOOOOOO HOOOOOO PAC!!!
