Very good point, Kretzklan. Although respect is very important to me to teach my kids, I am just recently learning through reading on attachment disorder how extremely important it is to take it up a notch with our older foster/adoptive kids. I am convinced that when the adoption goes through, if they haven't made that transition to calling me mom yet, I will insist on it based on respecting my position and what I do in caring for them. I have also begun increasing to stress the importance of respect in our home.
