[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 122154, member: 1550"] What type of professional diagnosed him? Are there any psychiatric problems in the birthfamily that you know of? Where did you adopt him from? Certain countries are more prone to certain problems--example: Eastern Europe has a lot of kids with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder. In India the kids are often born prematurely and have problems due to that and malnutrition. Some kids who grew up in orphanages for a series of time have their own issues. I have two kids adopted from abroad. The one we got as an infant is very attached to us, but the one we adopted at age six never did really attach to the family. He was well-behaved, but he never wanted to be mothered and was very self-sufficient. He doesn't see us anymore, and nobody really knows why, but he married a woman from his birth country and is really involved in his roots. Do you know if your child had a good pre-natal birth experience and was born with good medical care? A lot of adopted kids, especially those with no real history, are VERY hard to diagnose. In all, we have four adopted kids (see signature below). They are much harder to diagnose/figure out than when you have a full family genetic history. [/QUOTE]
