[QUOTE="pepperidge, post: 507929, member: 2322"] We have talked about it some in the context of why their birthmothers made an adoption plan so it isn't totally new information. we found out more when they were pretty young. I know it won't hurt to talk about the information, but how much to really impress upon them the dangers? Especially given the delays in their own executive functioning development. I am thinking that for both of them going away to college isn't going to happen for a variety of reaosns. They need more time to grow up and that probably means at home, god help us. I wish I could put them somewhere safe for a few years after they turn 18. Maybe I need to do some internet research on the genetic predisposition to addiction. [/QUOTE]
