[QUOTE="Steely, post: 47753, member: 3301"] Welcome Tara........ Your family has done an amazing thing, adopting this child into your home. I am sure he is beyond grateful for all that you have provided, but unfortunately, he is probably not able to show it right now due to his little mind being scrambled from all of the trauma he experienced. Nine years of abuse to a developing mind, cannot ever be erased. He needs intensive and extensive counseling, immediately, to try and reconcile these mental afflictions. Right now what you are witnessing is him acting out his feelings, and what he needs to be doing is trying to talk them out. Possibly some medication might help as well. So the first thing you might do, is contact your ins co for a list of therapists that are on your plan, and set up an appointment. - as well as set up an appointment with a Neuro Pyschologist to have an evaluation done ASAP. There are many on this board who have gone through similiar situations with foster children, and I am sure they will come along soon with even more wisdom. Again, welcome.............. [/QUOTE]
