Hope Revisited

For many years, in Coweta County, as in many areas of the state there has not been a safe and stable place for families whose children are in foster care (or other domestic situations) to have a family visitation other than a park when the weather is cooperative or a fast-food restaurant. Visitations can occur at these establishments; however, it is almost impossible to mend broken bonds, begin reconnecting and establish healthy relationships sitting in a Burger King Play area. Visiting at these locations can be stressful for all involved. The parents often are anxious because they must come up with funds to eat at the restaurant or purchase food to take to the park, the children don’t want to sit at a table and talk while there is a playground to play on and this is not what real life is like. When the parents are reunited with their children the visits that have occurred at Burger King have not prepared them for real life scenarios and situations. The visitations are equally as hard on the children. The only quality time that the children were spending with their parents is in a public place with so many distractions and they feel like their every move is being watched. Families don’t experience the formalities of cooking a meal, doing laundry, nap-time, homework time, playing games, reading a book or many other family time activities.
