We have an 11 year old foster daughter through Mental Health Services. We
have had her for just over 6 months. She is seriously emotionally disturbed
and ADHD. Her early years were lived much like an animal with her two
sisters. The entire time she has been with us I have been miserable. She
doesn't follow any rules ever. She has terrible temper tantrums and has no
respect for adults. While all these behaviors are understandable, they are
also intolerable for me. I CAN'T STAND HER!!!! My husband keeps saying
"let's just try a little longer". He's been saying that for six months. We
had a foster daughter before her for 3 years. That was a wonderful
experience for the most part and we are still in touch with her. She is a
pretty normal child who has just been in lousy circumstances. I would like
to go back to working for Social Services and take a less troubled child.
Any comments?
