OK, so I've talked about trying to makes the kids lives as normal as possible. Yesterday a new problem occurred with that. Is normal starting to interfere? Listen to this and tell me what you think:
Both 10 year olds have visits today, Cindy from 1-5, and Kristy from 3-5. In order to go to her visit, Cindy will have to miss both the cheer camp I have her in for Spring Break, and the water safety class. If Kristy goes to her visit, she'll miss water safety. Neither girl wants to miss either class. Cindy's mom doesn't even live here anymore, she moved about 6 hours north, and this will be their last visit for a while, but Cindy wants to give it up so she can go to the classes. Kristy begged her dad to let her miss their visit so she could go to her class. These classes, though only a week long, are interfering with the kids' time with their bio-families, and they don't care. The parents care...they don't like it. I probably wouldn't either. Their kids are choosing fun activities over seeing them. I can understand Kristy a little more because she will still see them next week, and she sees them 2 times per week plus two phone calls per week. But Cindy won't be seeing her mom again for a while, and she's losing her mom because of the termination.
Is giving them normal kid activities hindering progress with their families? What's the fair thing to do here? What's best?

In my opinion it is obvious. You did not try to look in google.com?
