[QUOTE="greenrene, post: 527475, member: 9177"] Insecure attachment is certainly a possibility. Her biomom is a piece of work, and although I know she loved difficult child, she was not the best caregiver. It's difficult to remain calm without yelling and screaming - I have 2 younger children, and I try VERY hard to maintain a peaceful household for their sake, despite the chaos difficult child can bring. Yes, I lose it sometimes, but when I say that I tell her that her life would be easier if she'd just learn to shut up, nowhere did I say I was screaming at her! I am very point-blank with her because subtlety doesn't work. Her mouth gets her in SO much trouble though, from the thinking everything is about her and also just from refusing to stop pushing my buttons when she's mad about being told to do something she doesn't want to do. She also likes to pick at easy child 1 relentlessly, which I refuse to tolerate. I'd be interested to read more about the "flavors" of insecure attachment - I'm pretty sure it applies to her, and I KNOW it applies to me. [/QUOTE]
