[QUOTE="AMother, post: 699334, member: 20782"] We adopted J just a few days after her 2nd birthday. She was in an orphanage from birth till then, but it was a small orphanage with many caretakers, a large playroom full of toys, and an environment that didn't seem abusive or neglectful. We got a full medical assessment when we got home and the doctors found not evidence for prenatal alcohol or drug exposure. She was a very normal kid until now, no unusual behaviors except for age-appropriate tantrums which I guess don't qualify as unusual. We have an appointment with a therapist scheduled for next week. I'm pretty sure that the whole thing started when she met that group of friends, but go tell a 12-years-old to stay away from her friends when she is so extremely determined not to (we decided that if things get worse, we'll have her transferred to a different school). So, that's the story for now. We're still not sure where we're going with this. Hopefully the therapist will have some useful ideas. [/QUOTE]
