[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 225831, member: 59"] Eeky, you have good insight about the heredity issues trumping environment. It's interesting that you observe that with your extended family, as I have seen that over and over again in families I am connected with. Our difficult child just cannot overcome some of the genes she has been born with no matter how far different her life is with us. She still reverts back to behaviors inherent in her birthfamily that are so foreign to our family that it can only be explained in the fact that nature trumps nurture all the time. You are in for a rough time, as you know already. All is not lost and your sister can be helped, but be realistic about how much she can change. Hopefully she will make a connection with this therapist and she can begin dealing with some of the issues that are causing her to be so angry. Nancy [/QUOTE]
