4. This is wrong

The mom was doing everything that she needed to do, and she deserves to have her children returned to her.

The foster parents are obviously desperate to keep the kids, despite the fact that their mother has worked very hard to improve her situation, and despite the fact that the kids probably don't want to lose their mom. That bothers me a great deal. The foster parents seem selfish to me, considering how quickly they wanted to adopt them, and how desperate they are to keep them. There is something fishy about that.
