[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 114212, member: 3626"] My daughter's kind of lucky, I guess. She knew her biomom. She knew her biomom fought in court to keep her. She saw her biomom after the adoption was finalized for awhile. I always went out of my way to let my daughter know that her biomom loved her dearly, just had no clue how to be a parent. She did the best she could, but it really and truly wasn't good enough. Strangely, from about age 10 on, she has never asked about her biomom at all. Not a single comment from then until today unless someone asks her and then she simply says her biomom didn't know how to be a mother. Part of me has always felt bad for my daughter that she seems to have no interest in seeing her biomom but it is her choice and I will support her either way. I do have a little of the family medical history. Not as much as I would like, but at least enough to give my daughter some ideas. Okay, now that I've gone off-topic, back to the Ranch. I've heard many good things about it. I do wish it would open up to any Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) child. It sounds like the perfect fit -- much better than most of the RTCs for kids with attachment disorders just because ADs are so hard to treat. [/QUOTE]
