disappointed right now

kinda disappointed in things right now and how they are working out for my 10 yr old client...his foster family didnt work out and he is being packed up and taken to the agency as we speak...im sad and worried for him and just frustrated that it has taken this long to come to this...since i started the mom hasnt wanted him..and the dad pushed for it..and this kid has been left in limbo for months..just kinda knowing something is going on and not being able to do anything about it..and then the family places his ability to stay on his behavior..how can you tell a 10 year old that he can stay if he is good enough?  how can you tell anyone that ?? and so yes i fully believe this kid gave up...this kid has been in what 7 foster families?  and they are expecting what? a miracle?  and so im told i HAVE to go to this meeting this afternoon..regardless of my plans of course...im told i have to speak for this child that no one wants...and help them figure out a placement for him..or tell them something they dont know about the kid..and how he is..and im just frustrated...ive been told i need to know where i stand on the issue..do i want him to stay in the placement..or do i not...do i stay in the middle and let the 'adults' fix this...and no i firmly believe that the placement should have ended before christmas..the kid has been told again and again that he was not wanted..and he got left in the house without the correct support for his issues...so no i dont want him placed back there...and i dont know what they are going to do to find him emergency placement..or even if ill be seeing him again after today..because of where he may be placed..and it is frustrating...and disheartening..just not knowing what is going to happen...it really is...
