It's like this...

I received a letter yesterday from the parents with contact info for them finally! In time for the court hearing today! Gosh I can't wait to hear what the actual plan is going to be.

However with that said, Why on earth do the parents get to enroll these children in school close to their homes if the children are not going home? So I say that yes they must be going home and soon. Because I will NOT be dropping them off or picking them up that far away everyday!! The school here is 1 block over! Yes 1 block. That is ride your bike close enough! Plus all 3 can attend as it is a very good public school with a great special education system. Of course I would not just enroll them, then make them switch schools... oh ya mean like their parents are currently doing? Because the oldest can't get into the school that they chose the older two, who have been attending school all week, will be changing schools too!

Seriously why bother then? School in the district that they currently live in has not even started yet so it's not like they are missing anything.

So yeah I am being a bitch about it and making CPS transport. Why shouldn't I? 42 miles round trip.. course that is better than the crap I dealt with at the beginning which was 76 miles a day round trip, of course that was because of my stupid big mouth.But this time NO because the point is, that a perfectly acceptable school is 1 block away and has not even started yet and would not have had the girls start school prior to the decisions of the court, then have to transfer!



PS: We are being highly recruited for a sibling set of 3 boys ages 10-15. While they are not in our wheelhouse of what we were thinking about at starting this process, I have not closed any doors and we have agreed to at least meet with them and see if we have a connection or want one. Who knows we could end up with that HUGE family I always wanted and then I'd really have something to complain about :-)

  2. I will be curious to see how the hearing goes as well. Around here if they don't go home then there is at least 90 days until the next hearing. how does it go there?
