dads too....
most know on here, about my older son, and his issues, and yes, there were times when i didnt even think i liked him, that i just wanted him out of the house.
it doesnt me we are horrible parents, it just means our children are really good at keeping people away from them.
thats what they do to protect themselves.
but like lorraine said, there will come a time, when all of a sudden, it hits you how much you truly love the child. even if it is only for a second, you know its real.
there will come a timme when you feel 'NO ONE will bully my kid, no one will be mean to my kid...blah blah blah'
sounds like this child is doing exactly what she thinks she needs to do to stay safe, and thats for you to reject her so she can say 'see, dont trust adults'
but boy is it hard work until they come around.....
