[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 454027, member: 1550"] To be fair, a child adopted from Eastern Europe is probably going to be hell on earth to raise. There are exceptions, but these are orphanage babies usually with attachment problems and many with fetal alcohol affects. I am not judging when I state the fact that many adopt from there because they can adopt a caucasian child, however there are better, safer countries to adopt from. On the other hand, if you can not handle a child's wild behavior any better than that, in my opinion it is kinder to call your agency and tell them that you can not handle the children. The woman is sadistically abusing them (and I don't care WHAT they did). She has the option, as we all do, of calling social services and asking them to remove the children. My guess is that maybe she DID use these abusive methods on her biol. kids. She doesn't seem to have coping skills and often this extreme punishing is because of an "I WILL win, you brat" attitude. Raising kids isn't a contest. I'd love to know which adoption agency thought she'd be a good parent, yet I know that one can lie to an agency pretty easily. (sigh) [/QUOTE]
