[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 602723, member: 1550"] My son got SSI when I started getting SSDI. So did Jumper actually. I never gave them access to the money. We used it for house expenses. We sort of pooled all of it. They never thought to ask for it. When Sonic moves out next year, then he gets SSDI which is HIS money and there are strict rules about how I, as his payee, spends his money and lots of receipts to keep etc. But while they live in your house, it is your business how you spend your money and the form is very basic. Many older adopted kids from overseas did not get any nurturing at the vulnerable times when they most needed it and decide that they will take care of #1 and that they won't depend on other people and they really DON'T want a family. I had two older adopted kids who had attachment disorder. I always urge anyone who asks me about adoption to adopt infants, as young as possible. They get damaged if they are not with one caregiver from very early on. You can't help all kids. Some are too damaged by the time you get them...it is not your fault. A bunch of us adopted older children from Hong Kong and out of all I know (and there were a lot of us) only one child is doing well in his family as an adult. Some are even AWOL. [/QUOTE]
