[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 509375, member: 1550"] Hi there. We did some foster parenting and adopting of one foster child. Do you know anything about attachment disorder? Most foster kids have that and this is why they do not listen...and they maybe never will. They do not attach well or at all to other people thus they do not think of anyone but themselves. This is due to having no security as an infant and child. No, loving them is not enough. Most of them are afraid of love and don't really want it. Are you considering adoption? Please read about attachment disorder. I will start you out with a link. This is an excellent article. I suggest reading the entire article, top to the end. It explains why most foster children do not attach to us the way we would like them to. You may need to find a therapit who understands insecure attachment issues as they can be serious.
