[QUOTE="newstart, post: 722765, member: 22416"] Thank you Tanya. I saw where you had adopted your difficult child at age 7. I can't even imagine all the heartache you must be feeling. Taking on an adopted child with all the money and paper work that goes into that and then having him not make good decisions. I am so sorry for you. I have many friends with adopted children and watch the struggle. My niece adopted 3 children from parents that were on crack and or in prison, her youngest sons birth mom did not even know she was PG until she gave birth. Hard to believe! Now these 3 are growing up and I see major problems already. I know that adoptive parents have so much love to give and to not have that love returned is so heartbreaking. I think that I will make up a card and when my daughter comes around and wants to talk all that self made drama and BS I will hold up that card that says 'Do not disturb'. A few weeks ago we took a short road trip together. She talked nonstop about her boyfriend telling me that are going to break up, I have heard that over and over again for 7 years. Plus all her other drama. Then I told her about a problem I was having and she told me to shut up. I knew if I said anything more it would turn into a war zone. I will not allow her to continue to rob me of my time and health. [/QUOTE]
