I hear you and I DO feel for you!
As you all know from the earlier post I made in February, SD finally wanted to get away from bio and live with us, even though she came as a package. (pregnant at 15) To relate to your post Tara, as much as we hoped, prayed and tried, as I am sure you and your DH have done over the years (to do the right things that is), they turn out the way you feared. She decided last Friday that she wanted to go home, marry her 15 yr old flunky boyfriend and get a job. We basically put the world at her feet and she spat on it. (without going into all the details) I am so mad as I know you are Tara and I guess there is just nothing we can do about it. Your situation is different though in that SS still has influence over your own children. Without knowing what all else has gone on here, if it were me, I would demand he be in counseling in and out of school and if not, that different arrangements be made for the sake of the children you two share. I just cannot believe what my SD has done. I sooooooo believed in her. She has chosen an extrememly hard road. (already on welfare and I know boyfriend will not hang around and if he does, will be a bad influence and end up leaving anyway.)
Tara, I guess all we can try to do is to know that we have done all that we could for the child, and let it go. I would, then, turn to the protection and welfare of the other children, for they do not need to suffer for someone else's past.
Good luck and prayers Dear!!!!!
to the ex and her evil husband for all the things they did to Christian. I have spent months trying to fix the damage she has done, and some days I feel like I am getting no where. He takes all the evil things they taught him and uses it on his brothers. I know he can't help it to a degree, but it is stressful!
