[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 539184, member: 1169"] I read one article that claimed that she had tried for ages to get ahold of someone at her adoption agency for support and that they never helped her. I think this was a desperate act by a desperate mom. Over 35 non-infant children were dropped off at hospitals and firehouses under Nebraska's Safe Haven law (during the very short time that it did not have an age limit), most of them having severe mental illness and parents who had no where left to turn to get their children help. As you say, the books do not convey the reality of the severest children. I think the books did a decent job of preparing us for 3 of our kids, but nothing short of a weekend in hell could have prepared us for Kanga. [/QUOTE]
