[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 613812, member: 14557"] MWM: This child didn't have chaotic early years either. He was first fostered, then adopted basically from birth by Aimless. He haven't been direct threat to other children in the family what Aimless knows either (and she has been watching.) I know you once adopted a dangerous child that hurt your other children and had to be removed. This boy is not that child. Just like he is not Sonic even though both have been born to drug addict mothers. You can't assume this child is like Sonic or that child you have to have removed just because they have few things in common. I do know this 'attachment therapy' is popular in adoption and foster circles. That doesn't make it legit. Neither does it take away the tragedies that has happened or horrible crimes parents have end up committing because of those child raring techniques. Or all the psychological damage inflected to already troubled and vulnerable children. By the way, you have asked me to elaborate my kid's history once before. I answered but you didn't read the answer, I assume. But that doesn't matter. This is not about me or my kid. Aimless: If you feel you can't parent this child in your home, would you have Residential Treatment Center (RTC) options? He does seem to make life of your family difficult and you sound like you have used your emotional resources and are in the end of your rope. Maybe having him in recidential setting even for a shorter time would ease the tension and help you develop better relationship with him while professionals would be able to have a new start with him in handling his behaviours. He is getting closer to puberty and unfortunately that is not likely to help at least. Passive-aggressive behaviour, which he seems to have a lot, tends to get worse like any other behavioural issue in puberty. Mine went from cutting other family member's favourite clothes, dog poop or dead mouse in the shoe etc. minor things to much more elaborate backstabbing during his teen years. And as MWM has kindly pointed out, he never was anywhere near that troubled as your son. [/QUOTE]
