[QUOTE="buddy, post: 497014, member: 12886"] Hello and welcome. I am so sorry for you, for the kids who were abused and for your daughter who surely was hurt terribly before you adopted her. I too am an adoptive mom to a child with many behaviors. He has hurt other kids when playing too rough, but not sexually (yet, you never know I guess). It is very hard to parent hurt kids, espeically when you feel you need to protect yourself and others from them. I agree to keep working the cps angle. She clearly needs long term intensive treatment, and at 15 it could be that she needs permanent living placement with supervision and protection. I am not sure i is a good thing your neighbors are not pressing charges. I wonder if they did if she would then be on record, she could be a life long offender. Others here have better insight on that, so I admit I do not know the pros and cons of all of that. I feel for you to have to fight insurance. One thing we have in our state is a post adoption program for children adopted from any situation, not just foster care. They connect and support crisis placement, therapy etc.... Is there anything in your state. Or through your adoption agency? Did she have any diagnosis prior to this? Glad you found this board, there are many really caring people here and you will see that you are not alone. [/QUOTE]
