[QUOTE="Malika, post: 520896, member: 11227"] Hi Willow and welcome. Sorry to sound arrogantly categorical, but with the history of your boys, it is almost impossible to see how attachment could NOT be an issue. It defies belief that children could spend almost the first four years of their life in an institution and not have attachment problems. My son spent just the first three months of his life in an institution and he is insecurely attached (although my divorce from his adoptive father and multiple moves in his early life also doubtless play their part in that.) Sounds a silly question but... do you talk to your boys about Russia? How does language play into this - presumably they came to you speaking Russian? How good is their English now? What connections, if any, do they still have with Russia? It must be destabilising to be taken from one culture to another at an older age. I am sure others will have more in-depth questions and suggestions. You have all my sympathy and admiration; times two is not easy... [/QUOTE]
