Hello everyone! Can't tell you how excited DH and I were when we found this group! We have just finalized our adoption of 2 beautiful girls 8 and 10. Our girls have been in and out of care most of their young lives. They have seen and heard things the rest of us would never dream of! To say that we "get" it says alot.....and it also says just how much others do NOT "get" it! We are hoping to learn from others here and establish some friends who share our goals of raising healthy (mentally and emotionally) happy well adjusted children!

Welcome Janet!

"Getting it" really has more to do with understanding what other parents are going through and providing support and a sounding board. "Getting it" has almost nothing to do with really and truly understanding what Children of Trauma have experienced.

Thanks for joining our community! I think you'll find kinship and supportive voices.
