[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 466738, member: 11791"] 1) I did NOT propose giving up J... this would be two teenagers IN ADDITION. 2) these are NOT garden-variety nice kids... these are wow-your-socks-off kids. Like... they'd take J under their wing, and you'd wonder what on earth happened! K1 would do all the "boy" stuff with him (build things, for example, fix motors, all THAT stuff), and K2 would mother/smother him to no end. 3) NO, you can't have them. I just suggested you might "want" them... but in fact, you may find that in 10 years, what you have ended up with is... a kid like mine.... as in, you'll end up with your own shining star. {{hugs}} I can't imagine doing this as a single parent, nor with an adopted kid. But I really do know what raising a difficult child is like. (not that they are all alike, but they are all a huge pile of work, and those of us who reach "payoff" have to wait a long time for it) [/QUOTE]
