[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 642216, member: 1550"] Lil, this isn't necessarily for our eyes, but for your thoughts. How did your son end up this way? How can you understand him? I think I may have one way... To understand your son better, if indeed you want to explore, you may want to think about his biological father. I don't remember your mentioning him. Although Jabby is a wonderful husband and I'm sure a fantastic father figure, he is not part of your son's DNA. You seem too balanced to be the person who has made your difficult child so dysfunctional. But the answer may lie with his sperm donor. In the adoption world, we are always shocked at how much our children are like their birthparents, even if they never knew them for even a day. DNA is huge in the way people are formed. I have been told wild stories from how some of the adopted children had the same handwriting as their birthmother or birthfather to how the adopted child had the same mannerisms and ticky way of getting annoyed easily...and physically showing it in the same way. I am glad Julie, Jumper and Sonic had some good DNA personality traits. I am unfortunate that 37 has inherited heavily from my dysfunctional DNA relatives. Now the environment DID help as he is not as severe as they are. But it's there. [/QUOTE]
