Date for trial isn't set yet, but CPS will definitely request reunification - returning the kids to their mother - and the judge has already said s/he finds just cause for that request.
I sent the caseworker an email explaining in detail why I oppose reunification, so she'll probably "forget to" send me a link to the Child-Family Team meeting (on Zoom).
I'll worry about Paxton, of course. But he's learned some good coping skills - or I should say he's learned that poor coping skills don't get the desired results, only very temporary ones and sometimes bad ones. He's been damaged emotionally, no question about that, but he's a sharp kid who has always given a lot of thought to the crap that's been thrown at him; breaks it down, examines it, assesses it...from a kid's perspective, but still, I believe he's capable of dealing pretty well with the challenges he'll face.
