Right after the previous post was written Nithin was taken out of our care because he was getting 'too attached.' This is bogus to me, and I can't help but feel really frustrated by it. He has made incredible behavioral, emotional, and linguistic progress since we have been taking care of him and given him the individual attention he needs. The way I see it, he is going to have a hard time when we leave here whether he is staying with us until then or not. Why should we be forced to withhold compassion and attention from the child who would benefit most from it? I was really burned by the news and sat and stewed a while, but once I realized there was nothing I could do about it, I played hopscotch with the girls and started to feel a bit better. (Even if I could only look longingly to my little buddy across the dividing wall.)
