So Little Mama Says

"My visit was boring. I was really hoping that we'd get to the play land like Jelly Bean and MM."

You know me being right in what the kids need makes it's seem like I am feeding these kinds of statements to the kids. And my email relaying this information to the case worker is just going to seem like picking on Mom.

So the challenge becomes how do you assist Mom in being "good enough" help her learn what her kids need and then not seem like a witch pointing out when she doesn't follow those pointers?
