Excerpts from article by Bradley Franklin published in Rise Magazine:
Trauma on Top of Trauma
I am concerned about the unknowns when it comes to my children’s well-being (although I do trust the foster families). Children in foster care are already dealing with the trauma of not having their parents and siblings, and now have no contact. I can’t imagine what my 5-year-old is feeling right now, especially, not seeing his brothers and sister nor his parents after just getting adjusted to being taken away by himself, then having only a couple of hours a week of seeing everyone, to now nothing.
Our next court date, scheduled for the first week of May, was supposedly to move to unsupervised visitations. I was keeping my fingers crossed that the date would hold. Unfortunately, I just received word that our court date has been rescheduled to the last week of June. It was not news we wanted, but there is not much we can do about it, either. Hopefully, it doesn’t get rescheduled again.
I still have had no luck in getting ahold of my case manager.
