A child should be committed to hospital/institution when the doctor say they have an addiction the ordinary health care provider can not help with (or if that is not enough) or have a mental illness so they are a danger to themselves and their environment.

What does it mean when you dream three dreams about a child and their father doesn't show until their four?

The question is not clear as to whether these are dreams about an actual child or simply a child in a dream. Generally speaking, the dreams are about something that is very important to you, whether a real child or something else to which you are committed. The absent father symbolizes someone who you feel should also be responsible and committed, but disappoints you by their lack of involvement.


Would a California noncustodial parent be granted visitation rights to a Florida child he has only seen in once in seven years if he has paid support through a wage garnishment for this period of time?

Yes. If the absent parent is committed to creating a relationship with their child that parent should petition the court for a child visitation schedule. A child should have the benefit of two parents. However, the absent parent should allow the child to acclimate slowly by visiting the child in her own environment at first until a trusting and comfortable relationship can develop. Also, the absent parent shouldn't make those changes unless they are committed to form a permanent relationship. It would be extremely damaging to the child if that parent disappeared from their life again.

At the age of ten, the health and well being of the baby should be up most in your mind. Secondly there is the matter of child abuse and wither the boyfriend committed rape or not. The baby should be put up for adoption and placed with a couple that could give that child the love and care the child will need.

Can someone return child to dcfs after adoption?

Yes, it can be done, but it's something that generally should not be done. It's extremely traumatic to the child.The general suggestion from social workers is that adoptive parents should not start visitation with the child until they're already pretty much committed to the adoption, and that you should never rush into finalization, and that when going into finalization, you need to make sure that you have realistic expectations on how difficult parenting the child(ren) will be.
