[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 427920, member: 1550"] An adoption specialist would know more about attachment issues than this therpaist. Remember, therapy is not an exact science and they bring their own biases into each session. Find somebody who works exclusively with adopted kids. We have one that does. He's a psychologist, by the way, and he's GREAT. It makes a big differnece! Every situation is also different. If he is a threat to your other children, you may have no choice but to parent him from a distance. We adopted a child who sexually abused (for two years) our two youngest kids. It was bad abuse too and our two youngest were too afraid of him to tell us...he threatened to burn the house down with all of us in it and they believed him. Trust me, he did not act like this at all in front of us, the parents. He had reactive attachment disorder. He is gone. I don't recommend you take those measures, because it doesn't seem that he has sexually violated your younger kids, but your other kids still deserve a peaceful home. Him standing over you at night and staring at you, gave me goosbumps. That is pretty strange behavior. (((Hugs))) [/QUOTE]
