[QUOTE="Sister's Keeper, post: 703949, member: 20051"] Hey Crayola, I have adopted my sister's 3 kids. The youngest of which was born addicted. (heroin) She has developmental delays, but no real behavior problems. We have always tried to be honest with them about their mother's addiction. We have approached it from the position that the drugs affect her brain and make her sick, so, sometimes she does things that aren't right (she is in prison) and that because she is sick she can't take care of them. Although my sister has prostituted herself, we have decided not to broach that subject. She is presently in prison for multiple shoplifting and parole/probation violations. She hasn't had any prostitution charges or convictions (oddly enough no drug charges or convictions either, go figure) so we have decided that the prostitution thing is information they just don't need to have.
