Bob has a good idea-- also I wonder if checking with a lawyer--Legal Aid,
perhaps?--would be a help. This sounds really screwed up----what do the
caseworkers, etc say? A supervisor ? If Jessi is not in your *legal
custody* she IS in your home, and there must be some way of adjusting the
red tape to that reality! Can your therapist or Jessi's run interference
for you ? This is a real "falling between the cracks in the system"
situation---and I don't know either why you weren't warned. That's
ridiculous!
Don't the kids gets survivors' benefits---and can't these come to your home
when they are living there?
Please check all the angles, and let us know how we may help !
