[quote=Anonymous]I was going to chime in on that thread OP. I have a very similar family situation and am veyr sympathetic to the awful choices you (and your nephew) were/are facing. I think you did exactly the right thing in asking him what he wanted. My 14 yr old nephew is distressingly able to discuss his home situation and his fears and needs with me. It's a result of his traumatic upbringing that he can/will discuss these things - but it has also allowed me to make decisions with him. And when my decisions are informed by his opinions and wishes then I feel better about them. So I wish you and him luck. You are certainly giving him a chance he won't get elsewhere and I hope that there will be some silver linings in it for you and your family also. And, you are ENTIRELY within your rights to set reasonable and appropriate boundaries for your family - of which he is now a part. Hang in there.[/quote]
