My daughter had her children removed from her custody 18 months ago. I was working in the oilfield, so I couldn't take them right away. When spring breakup came, I was named as a Person of Sufficient Interest. Her children were removed from her home because she failed to provide for them. (care, stability, clean home, etc.) They took the them because she was caught 'cutting' herself. They took them because of a harmful relationship, domestice violence. They took her children because she was not stable and went and got pregnant by the same guy who was abusing her and there is suspicion of him abusing the little girl.
I've had the children in my care for 6 months, now. I have been attending to their needs and allowing the parents a lot more than a foster family would be. They are together and doing so much better.
She's done nothing to improve her situation and has decided that I can't adopt them. She wants another 'try at parenting her children.' Am I selfish in fighting for them?
