[QUOTE="bountiful life, post: 318594, member: 8396"] Hello Midwest Mom, Thanks for all of your input. DDH was 1 1/2 years old when we adopted her and DDL (older) was 2 1/2. They were both in the foster home together and they had been there since birth. I do not believe there was any abuse in the household, however there were 8 children the home. The family had 4 children of their own and 2 sets of foster sisters. The biological mother was a alcoholic/addict, DHL did not have any chemical showing the mother abused while she was pregnant. DDH did however have narcotics show in her testing. Both children have been seen by areas of expertise in these areas and I have been assured that both children show no signs of risidual effects of the mother's mistakes. I sat down and had a real good talk with DDH last night and it was a much smoother evening and morning...thank god! The talk ended with lots of hugs and kisses with reassurance that there is no mistaking she and her sister are my daughters no matter who carried them in their tummy and that my husband and I Love them more than anything in the world. She seemed eased and I gave her some "important jobs" to help me with and she complied. DDH will see the Doctor in December and until then, I will just reinforce my love and sit and talk to her privately everynight and see if she needs to let anything out...I am determined that we will get through this. I thank you so much for your help:happy: [/QUOTE]
