No and No for me. I was most certainly NEVER prepared for attachment issues at all. And, I kind of blame both agencies and myself.
I have and most often will stay out of most heated discussion about attachment, but I will add this... This forum was a miracle for us. I basically found out I wasn't crazy or just a terrible mother right here. I still remember that moment. It is absolutely imperative that we all continue to tell our stories. Some mother or father somewhere needs to hear it even if they don't know it yet. Never stop.
I now have a friend who is adopting and is sick of hearing me talk about it...I won't stop though. She'll thank me for it later...of that I am certain.
