A few months ago my Nmom, that I’ve been no contact with for the last 8 years, applied to be a foster parent. She has been trying to get pregnant again for years. She wanted a do over but thankfully that failed every time.
The only reason I found out is because the company they were going through had to reach out to the adult child of families applying to fill out a questionnaire.
I can’t even explain the extreme levels of fear that instantly shot through me at the thought of her having another child in her home.
I wrote out an email sharing the key points of my mistreatment/neglect and filled out the questionnaire and sent everything over and was left to wait.
Two weeks later my sister got impatient so she called them and they confirmed that their application had been denied and that there were red flags even before they heard from us.
I had very little faith in the foster care system but they actually listened and thanks to that those kids are at least safe from her.
