Then I could adopt them.finders keepers and all that jazz.

On a serious note can sympathise with what you are going through.We had to go through fostering with view to adoption in order to try and adopt inS.Africa. We got to the point of signing adoption papers three times ,each a different family and at the last moment one of the parents refused to sign. A caes of we dont want,they can stay in childrens home but well bed-----d if anyone else will get them.Went into fostering when we returned but all the stupid rules they have now,sorry but thats not a sane way .Maybe they have changed now but to get your dog trained to only perform natural duties in a set area of the garden and no smoking near the children,and hair tied back all the time you are cooking.Where do you get time for childcare???lol
