[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 687643, member: 18958"] It is sad. He knows he crossed way over a line. It is heartbreaking, all around. If you are in a position to suggest it, I would ask that your 11 year old be evaluated by a child neurologist. There could be something neurological influencing his behavior. I am an adoptive mother too. My son was 22 months, just a little bit younger than was your son, when he came home. I am putting myself in your shoes. It is hard to even go there. I think the social worker at the agency stonewalled you because of fear of potential liability. Jerk. Your relationship with your son is not adversarial. There is nobody here on trial. There is nobody who can be held responsible or not. Even though he caused it. Because he is a young child. Your decisions are based not on love or not loving. There are based upon having to do what is necessary and correct based upon what has come before. You will find that place in you to speak from.I am glad. So glad. This sounds right. I would talk to the attorney first, as is your plan. Mom. Your voice sounds stronger in just a day or two. [/QUOTE]
