[QUOTE="SRL, post: 280463, member: 701"] To Nomad's questions I would also add: Are you in solid financial shape? If applicable, how does the state that you live in rank in terms of providing mental health services? If you are employed, is your employer flexible? I'm sorry that we couldn't offer more positive responses, but it's not our way to sugarcoat things around here. The combination of the history of the bioparents, the sexual abuse in early childhood and the extent of the behavioral problems is going to make things very difficult for this little one and those who care for her. Most children with this cluster of issues will need ongoing treatment, and many wind up needing very expensive residential care along the way. Should you choose to go forward, do so with your eyes wide open. [/QUOTE]
