For those who see I have added difficult child#2, aka My Stray, I thought I had better explain.
He came to us via a truck stop in MI in September. The poor thing has been bounced from bio-mom to Residential Treatment Center (RTC), to foster care to Residential Treatment Center (RTC), to bio-dad, to Uncle, to grandma, to aunt, then to the street, where we found him. Poor baby hadn't had food in 3 days and only had the cloths on his back.
He is one of those difficult children that fell through the cracks, and whose bio-parents didn't understand or know how to deal with him. They didn't understand the side effects of medicine that made him worse. Bio-mom was drug addict, and foster parents and bio-dad couldn't deal with him.
Luckily I do understand and can deal with him. :smile:
He gets along with my difficult child and pcs ok. Nothing major, just usual sibling stuff. He calls me and husband, mom and dad. That is fine with us.
Currently working on getting him medical insurance, a new evaluation, a job, a car, and a license. Already tracked down birth certificate.
He's a good kid who just need some guidence and help.
I can do that! :its_all_good:
