I had a child with attachment issues. The cw didn't believe it, though, because the child was so sweet & affectionate around the cw. The child was also sweet & affectionate with the pizza delivery guy, the dentist, store employees, and every other stranger she came across. The cw actually accused me of "trying too hard" to bond with a child I had as a foster/adopt situation. And not being "understanding" of the child who already had four different mothers by the time she was 4 (in addition to a dozen other placements with family members). Because "Darlene" would give the cw a hug when she visited, she considered "Darlene" to be attached. The cw spent maybe 10 minutes at a time with "Darlene" during these visits. I would take your cw's comments about this child with a grain of salt.

THERE ARE EIGHT DIFFERENT WAYS YOUR CHILD CAN DIE ON A CORDED WINDOW TREATMENT
Read "How Safe Cords Kill" at www.pfwbs.org

THREE CHILDREN HAVE STRANGLED TO DEATH SINCE ANGEL DIED ON 8/11/09.
Brandyn Coppedge died on 9/11/09. Rosie Smith died on 9/30/09 and Thapelo Kwofie died on 11/1/09. The Consumer Product Safety Commission is no longer recommending safety kits. They are now recommending that anywhere children live or visit should be free of corded window products.
