i hear ya, Crissy. It's tough stuff. We have a 14 y/o that has been with us for 3 months and it can be VERY tough. The question I keep coming back to is "can you choose your family?". Not normally. Will I ever send "B" back? Never. Will he drive me crazy sometimes? yes. DO my bio-kids drive me crazy sometimes? yes.
However, you also have to know your limits. Tell the cw what you are feeling. There is no rush as long as your boy is in a safe environment.
