Spent some of yesterday afternoon sitting in a Placement Planning Meeting as AD has recently moved to new FC (Section 20). I have posted before my feelings on this placement!
One thing discussed was that parental permission was required for overseas holidays. Woke this morning to email from FC saying they had spoken to AD about going back to FC’s family home (somewhere abroad) for two weeks in August and AD would like to go and so that she isn’t lonely they have said her boyfriend can go too!
Talk about feeling backed into a corner – is it just me but shouldn’t parental permission be sought upfront? Am I allowed to feel grumpy over this? What will happen if we kick up stink? Meanwhile AD sits serenely in the middle no doubt enjoying the chaos and bad feeling being caused!
I am sure it will be lovely to see more of the world, wish I could go too; perhaps they could take me instead of the boyfriend. I am very well behaved and quite clean!
Thanks for reading

PS We have been having some really good times with AD, she now stays every weekend with a view to getting her home and we are also taking her away for a week in July – DH and I discussed whether to invite boyfriend as AS has friend going but came to the conclusion it didn’t feel right.
