[QUOTE="MollyC, post: 469081, member: 12988"] They think he was sexually and physically abused. His other sister died in the home with him present, and he still remembers it. His mother suffers from mental illness. His father has never had any involvement. He came to us at age four and a half and was still in diapers. He spoke jibberish. He didn't know any of the things a child his age should have known. Personally, I know I can do this. I also know my family as a whole can't. Maybe I just need someone to tell me it's okay, so I don't feel guilty about this for the rest of my life. I also worry for his sister. What if the next foster home doesn't protect her from him?
