[QUOTE="Christy, post: 167393, member: 225"] How's this for socially inappropriate? We walk into difficult child's new tae kwon do class and difficult child immediately introduces himself by saying... "Hi my name is N and I am adopted because my old parents were poor and my new ones buy me lots of stuff." The parents immediately shot me questioning looks and the kids wanted to know exactly how much stuff he had-LOL Needless to say, we had a conversation about this later. Unfortunately, due to his history of neglect, he remembers being hungry and not having much but this is not how it came across. I also asked him why he thought it was important for a group of people he just met to know this? This got me an "I don't know, is it supposed to be a secret?" [/QUOTE]
