Y nunca se ha ido.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Esto todav\u00eda es una maravilla para m\u00ed, porque no entramos en el sistema de acogida con la intenci\u00f3n de adoptar. No es que no deseara que sucediera (porque s\u00ed lo deseaba), pero no emprend\u00ed el viaje con eso como \u201cmeta\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Pero supe en cuesti\u00f3n de d\u00edas (o tal vez solo horas, si soy totalmente honesto) que nunca quer\u00eda que viviera en ning\u00fan otro lugar. No tuve voz en esa decisi\u00f3n durante meses, hasta que el TPR fue eminente y DCS nos pregunt\u00f3 si estar\u00edamos dispuestos a adoptarlo. \u00a1La respuesta, por supuesto, fue \u201cs\u00ed\u201d!<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Por favor, no escuchen lo que no estoy diciendo: de ninguna manera estoy insinuando que hacer crecer una familia a trav\u00e9s del cuidado de crianza sea un objetivo terrible... \u00a1porque no lo es en absoluto! Muchas familias ingresan al cuidado de crianza como una forma de hacer crecer a sus familias... y eso es algo maravilloso y sorprendente, porque hay muchos ni\u00f1os en nuestro mundo que necesitan (y merecen) un hogar seguro y amoroso.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Pero s\u00e9 que no todos los que intentan formar una familia a trav\u00e9s del cuidado de crianza terminan pudiendo adoptar. Y aunque no lo entiendo del todo, s\u00e9 que es verdad. Camin\u00e9 junto a ellos y lo presenci\u00e9 de primera mano con algunas de mis amigas madres adoptivas. Es dif\u00edcil de ver, pero obviamente mucho m\u00e1s dif\u00edcil de experimentar. No tengo palabras para describir c\u00f3mo es eso.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Otra expectativa que ten\u00edamos (o al menos yo ten\u00eda\u2026 no s\u00e9 si mi esposo alguna vez sinti\u00f3 que este ser\u00eda el caso) es que tendr\u00edamos una \u201cpuerta giratoria\u201d y que los ni\u00f1os entrar\u00edan y saldr\u00edan cuando nos necesitaran y que continuamente tendr\u00edamos una colocaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Mis expectativas se vieron puestas en jaque despu\u00e9s de la adopci\u00f3n de nuestro hijo; Esperaba que pudi\u00e9ramos volver a ser \u201cpadres adoptivos de tiempo completo\u201d. Planeamos tomarnos un peque\u00f1o descanso (como lo hacen muchos hogares despu\u00e9s de una adopci\u00f3n) y simplemente tomar un respiro por un tiempo... pero eventualmente estar\u00edamos listos para volver a entrar.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Pero al contrario de lo que esper\u00e1bamos, eso no ha sucedido. No me malinterpretes\u2026 lo intentamos aproximadamente un a\u00f1o despu\u00e9s de su adopci\u00f3n. Ten\u00edamos al beb\u00e9 de 8 meses m\u00e1s relajado y tranquilo con nosotros. Dur\u00f3 un mes. \u00bfPor qu\u00e9? Porque nuestro hijo no pudo soportarlo. No como un mocoso mimado, sino como un \u201cMami, te necesito\u2026 necesito toda tu atenci\u00f3n, porque todav\u00eda tengo muchos problemas que debo resolver\u201d. As\u00ed que interrumpimos esa ubicaci\u00f3n (y s\u00ed, la interrupci\u00f3n ocurre... m\u00e1s sobre eso en una publicaci\u00f3n posterior).<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">As\u00ed que entrar\u00e1s en un hogar de acogida con expectativas. Todos lo hacen. C\u00f3mo no, porque como todas las experiencias de la vida, crees saber c\u00f3mo ser\u00e1. Has le\u00eddo los libros, \u00bfverdad? \u00bfQu\u00e9 tan dif\u00edcil puede ser? Pero si somos honestos con nosotros mismos, las cosas rara vez salen como se espera, entonces, \u00bfpor qu\u00e9 el cuidado de crianza ser\u00eda diferente? No lo har\u00e1. As\u00ed que supongo que lo que estoy diciendo es esto: no tengas expectativas sobre c\u00f3mo resultar\u00e1n las cosas. O al menos, INTENTAR no tener expectativas. Las expectativas no son del todo malas, pero William Shakespeare lo dijo mejor: &quot;La expectativa es la ra\u00edz de todo dolor&quot;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Atentamente,<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Kris<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I have been ruminating this week about what we thought foster care would be like versus what it has ended up being for us.
