[quote=Anonymous]I am an adoptive mom as well. I'm so sorry you're going through this. Agree to get help - she may need meds, and therapy for her and for you could really help with this very challenging time. I don't know her circumstances, and how much medical information you have. It's tough as a parent not to know what you're potentially dealing with - but also there is a huge variation of outcomes even with serious risks like with drug and alcohol exposed infants. But a good friend pointed out, even with your own biological child you can have surprises. You need a great pediatrician to start with, and work from there to find a psychiatrist and psychologist or social worker. One thing I've realized over time is that sometimes difficulties things are related to adoption, but often they are not. Sometimes it's just your kid and their own path in life, which has ups and downs. Good luck to you![/quote]
