[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 755962, member: 23706"] I am very sorry about that lack of love. My daughter is sadly the same. She doesn't love or know how to live.bi try not to think it is due to her being adopted, but deep in my heart where a mother just knows things, I think my daughter is partly like she is because she was adopted, even though she was very young when we adopted her. Since that time I have both read and heard that even two months of a baby without a primary living caregiver can cause this. If so, she was in that situation for three months and as she got older and was no longer interested in impressing us she showed her true colors. I feel like it's not even all her fault. She spent her first three months with alternating caregivers. I could tell the difference with my other two right away. We have a special bond, although this does not always happen with biological kids. You need only read these sad stories to know that. But this is how it is with us. Kay is very centered on Kay and only Kay and is not one bit interested in anyone else in the family. So I understand how Josh behaves, although I don't know him or why he acts that way. Drugs never help. Not even pot. It is not a benign healthy plant. I feel for you. Honestly, Kay's lack of love hurt us more than how she didn't thrive. So...guess I just want you to know that I get the situation. And I know how it feels. At this point in time, I am done trying. All the love we poured on Kay did nothing except make her meaner. With all my heart I hope things turn out differently for you. It is so incredibly hard. I honestly think Kay helped cause my numbness toward her. I literally panic just remembering life with Kay. I must be a terrible mother.bilI am so numbed out that the love is hidden...I can't feel it anymore. How bad is that? God bless your entire family. [/QUOTE]
