 We never received a response, a court date, not a paper to sign, and our other options would be to hire a lawyer to serve papers, get their attention, but I wasn't willing to give human services any more of my time because I gave them enough of that as a youth. My husband and I were in our mid-20s when we took in my sibling, still very much establishing our lives, and it wasn't easy, especially in the beginning, but we knew we'd make it work like many kinship care providers do no matter what.
