Wednesday afternoon was their scheduled weekly supervised visit with their mom; every week they d come into the same room with the same books and toys, while I sat on an office chair at the door jotting down notes. Before I became a staff writer at the
Journal, I worked with Humboldt County youth at an afterschool program, a summer camp and at the foster care agency. Some of my job included monitoring supervised visits like these. Mom played with daughter. Mom engaged in a conversation with her son and asked him about school. Mom brought snacks. Mom read a book to them.
