Next counseling is in order. We have fought over a granddaughter also, but things finally falling into place. We were foster parents and you have to protect yourself also. Not an easy chore, but you want to be productive with her. Thoughts are with you.

It is hard to imagine all that she has been through-perhaps lying was just her way to cope with whatever she was facing. Prayer is something you can pour all your emotions into for this child. Sending big hugs to you today.<br />NoreenNanaNor'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03608980502430055753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8040223448706025231.post-78082399662350091532014-07-23T13:23:55.496-07:002014-07-23T13:23:55.496-07:00Oh my but you have your hands full!
I'm sorry...Oh my but you have your hands full!<br /><br />I'm sorry that I do not have any advice to give. . . but I will add you and yours to my prayers.<br /><br />Good luck working everything out.

Some ideas: family meetings where everyone airs a complaint and the object of the complaint has one rebuttal.<br /><br /> Definitely seek help - you surely have people in your area that can help with family conflict. Church counselors, maybe.<br /><br /> Try to have some time each day when you or husband or both can have 'alone' time with the newest arrival - it may help for her to be the focal point without doing something nasty to get it.<br /><br /> And do make sure that you and your husband have your alone time - renewal time.<br /><br /> Good luck<br /><br />Suzsuzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08274053801154978469noreply@blogger.com
