Last visit with my niece.. adoption

Have wrote about my lovely niece before however it has just been sprung on us that she is now being adopted. Thursday is our last visit with her.

Me and my mum normally have separate visits from my nieces mum as she has attacked me before and I had to call the police on her.

They have said this meeting will be all of us together or I can go at 2 and leave at 3 before her mum gets there. Or do I just ignore the mum and stay?

The thought of my niece having to say goodbye twice makes me sad but then her mum is awful and don't really want to be stuck in a small room with her.

Flowers for you, OP. This sounds like a tough meeting.

How long would you have with your niece if you went at the same time as her mother? If it would be significantly longer than an hour I'd go and try to make things as smooth as possible, ignore any trouble. It sounds unlikely she would attack you again or anything like that but if you're concerned could you speak to staff there beforehand?

Perhaps think about whether one hour but alone with your niece might give you more quality time though. If it's an hour alone or two hours with someone you find difficult to be around, I might go for the former.

Anyone else got any experience of a situation like this that can advise the OP?
