[QUOTE="buddy, post: 498257, member: 12886"] I think a panel of us needs to really go around to different adoption agencies and share. It does no one, not even the system any good to deny these things an dto not prepare more. I read Daniel Hughes (sp?) and other adopting the older child books, joined groups for attachment online, etc. But I was with a small agency and the parents who owned it had several kids with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). I think it made a difference in my prep but I still would not have really known. and I first was referred twin girls who were starting fires and police were called to their house often. The foster mom over and over said, yes I will adopt then told the girls they were too bad to be adopted etc. I asked if in our post adoption agreement therapy would be covered and they said in my home, because I worked with special needs kids, they would be fine. HUH?? I had to decline the placement and it KILLED me. I cried for a week. Just awful, they were only 5. I guess though, Q was meant to be with me. He is harder in many ways healthy wise but probably I can do it because there are not two of them! I dont regret my decision. [/QUOTE]
