Et il n&#039;est jamais parti.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">C&#039;est toujours une merveille pour moi, car nous n&#039;avons pas \u00e9t\u00e9 plac\u00e9s en famille d&#039;accueil dans l&#039;intention d&#039;adopter. Non pas que je ne souhaitais pas que cela se produise (parce que je le souhaitais), mais je ne me suis pas lanc\u00e9 dans le voyage avec cela comme \u00ab objectif \u00bb.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Mais j\u2019ai su en quelques jours (ou peut-\u00eatre quelques heures seulement, si je suis tout \u00e0 fait honn\u00eate) que je ne voulais jamais qu\u2019il vive ailleurs. Je n&#039;ai pas eu mon mot \u00e0 dire sur cette d\u00e9cision pendant des mois, jusqu&#039;\u00e0 ce que TPR devienne \u00e9minent et que DCS nous demande si nous serions pr\u00eats \u00e0 l&#039;adopter. La r\u00e9ponse, bien s\u00fbr, \u00e9tait \u00ab oui \u00bb !<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">S&#039;il vous pla\u00eet, n&#039;entendez pas ce que je ne dis pas : je ne sous-entends en aucun cas que fonder une famille gr\u00e2ce au placement familial est un objectif terrible \u00e0 atteindre\u2026 parce que ce n&#039;est absolument pas le cas ! De nombreuses familles entrent en famille d\u2019accueil pour agrandir leur famille\u2026 et c\u2019est une chose merveilleuse et \u00e9tonnante, car de nombreux enfants dans notre monde ont besoin (et m\u00e9ritent) d\u2019un foyer s\u00fbr et aimant.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Mais je sais que tous ceux qui ont l\u2019intention de fonder une famille en famille d\u2019accueil ne finissent pas par pouvoir adopter. Et m\u00eame si je ne le comprends pas compl\u00e8tement, je sais que c&#039;est vrai. J&#039;ai march\u00e9 \u00e0 ses c\u00f4t\u00e9s et j&#039;en ai \u00e9t\u00e9 t\u00e9moin direct avec certaines de mes amies m\u00e8res adoptives. C\u2019est difficile \u00e0 regarder, mais \u00e9videmment encore plus difficile \u00e0 vivre. Je n&#039;ai pas de mots pour exprimer ce que c&#039;est.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Une autre attente que nous avions (ou du moins j&#039;avais\u2026 Je ne sais pas si mon mari a jamais pens\u00e9 que ce serait le cas) est que nous aurions une \u00ab porte tournante \u00bb et que les enfants allaient et venaient selon nos besoins et que nous aurions continuellement un placement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Mes attentes ont \u00e9t\u00e9 mises en \u00e9chec apr\u00e8s l&#039;adoption de notre fils ; Je m\u2019attendais \u00e0 ce que nous puissions redevenir des \u00ab parents d\u2019accueil \u00e0 temps plein \u00bb. Nous avions pr\u00e9vu de faire une petite pause (comme le font de nombreux foyers apr\u00e8s une adoption) et de simplement faire un r\u00e9pit pendant un moment\u2026 mais nous serions ensuite pr\u00eats \u00e0 revenir.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Mais contrairement \u00e0 ce que nous esp\u00e9rions, cela ne s\u2019est pas produit. Ne vous m\u00e9prenez pas\u2026 nous avons essay\u00e9 environ un an apr\u00e8s son adoption. Nous avons plac\u00e9 chez nous le b\u00e9b\u00e9 de 8 mois le plus d\u00e9contract\u00e9 et le plus facile \u00e0 vivre. Cela a dur\u00e9 un mois. Pourquoi? Parce que notre fils ne pouvait pas le supporter. Pas d&#039;une mani\u00e8re d&#039;enfant g\u00e2t\u00e9, mais d&#039;une mani\u00e8re &quot;Maman, j&#039;ai besoin de toi\u2026 J&#039;ai besoin de toute ton attention, car j&#039;ai encore beaucoup de probl\u00e8mes \u00e0 r\u00e9soudre.&quot; Nous avons donc perturb\u00e9 ce placement (et oui, des perturbations se produisent\u2026 nous en parlerons plus dans un article ult\u00e9rieur).<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Vous irez donc en famille d\u2019accueil avec des attentes. Tout le monde le fait. Comment ne pas le faire, car comme toutes les exp\u00e9riences de la vie, vous pensez savoir comment cela se passera. Vous avez lu les livres, n&#039;est-ce pas ? \u00c0 quel point cela peut-il \u00eatre dur? Mais si nous sommes honn\u00eates avec nous-m\u00eames, les choses se passent rarement comme pr\u00e9vu, alors pourquoi le placement familial serait-il diff\u00e9rent ? Ce ne sera pas le cas. Donc je suppose que ce que je dis est ceci : n\u2019ayez pas d\u2019attentes sur la fa\u00e7on dont les choses vont se d\u00e9rouler. Ou \u00e0 tout le moins, ESSAYEZ de ne pas avoir d\u2019attentes. Les attentes ne sont pas toutes mauvaises, mais William Shakespeare l\u2019a bien dit : \u00ab Les attentes sont la racine de tous les chagrins. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Sinc\u00e8rement,<\/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.
