[quote=Anonymous]Teens get angry. I have two teens. Both girls. One adopted. One not. The bio child has had more anger issues. When my bio child started really seeming to struggle, I got her a counselor. It was amazing how dramatic the changes were. I also enrolled her in exercise dance classes two days a week (with her reluctant acceptance). That has also made a big difference. My adopted daughter is encouraged to talk about adoption, her home country etc. etc. She also is better regulated when she has regular physical activity. She has not been interested in a counselor, at least yet.[/quote]
