I mind you... she has been in the system most of her life! Multiple foster homes and then a RTC. Really sad!

It doesn't seem possible to think of a 5 year old having such trouble, but it does happen. I hope I'm not speaking out of turn, but she has to have some major issues to already be dx bipolar and be in RTC. Yes, she has been through more than we can imagine, but it manifests in their behaviors.
I wish you the best. Please update as you can.
