[quote=Anonymous]OP -- just wanted to say I'm so impressed with you, just with the little you've posted. You sound very caring and thoughtful about how you approach things. I agree with the PP who said that you have to change how you handle your other kids for a little while, to help the new kid not be so traumatized. Tell the kid that you will talk to them later, at the dining room table, after everyone has a chance to calm down. Or ask the adopted kid what would make him feel comfortable. Could you have a family meeting where you discuss new rules that would make everyone feel comfortable -- or is that too much pressure on the adopted kid? (To answer your question, my approach is much like what you set out that you have already been using). [/quote]
