Yes she is my bio-logical daughter I was on brethine towards the end of my pregnancy to stop from delivering early - otherwise ALL was well! Only illness has been asthma - and she has luckily outgrown it! Yes - She has been persistent in the counseling arena... for nearly 3 or 4 years. At times she has been known to bottle up emotions and is only willing to work with certain therapists. midwest mom: Biological father has been out of the picture since... she was almost 6 years of age. I have been told he may be bi-polar. Surprisingly I have never been used to giving people access to my children. The only caregivers they have had are my mother. Very fortunate and grateful. About the drugs - I would say absolutely not. Not trying to sound funny however - this girl has never ridden in a school bus let alone been alone with any friends of her anywhere - without a me or my mother.
