Hi! I have just started the adoption process (had the pre-screening checklist phone call, gone to the open evening, and have a sw coming round next friday)
I'm just so worried that they will reject me as unsuitable. I have a DS aged 5, I am a single parent, I live in a rented house which needs some work doing (I moved in end of aug so it is a case of doing it bit by bit and garden needs work) but I anticipate that all to be done by end of March, I'm currently employed temporarily full time whilst I look for part time work, and I have suffered bad depression (I'm currently on anti depressants and feel stable, and I'm hoping that as the assessments etc will be made over winter, I can demonstrate how well I'm doing).
I feel like I can justify and argue how any potential barriers either aren't issues or are in the process for getting resolved, eg as soon as spring comes my garden will be sorted; but I'm just so worried that a sw won't see it like that.
