Question Posted Tuesday October 16 2007, 7:26 am

i have tried loving this child as if she were my own, shes so rude she screams in my face, and even hit me. i dont wanna go to jail over her and lose my own children. her real mom is in prison, she has not seen or talked to her since she was very young (3-4) shes fine as long as her butt is being kissed. i'm not her friend but i think at 1st i was trying to be. it has all blown up in my face. what way do i turn now?

You need to have a real conversation with your husband and you need to get help, from either a counsellor or social services. If she hits you again, spits at you, or any other form of assault you need to press charges, otherwise it will only get worse. Also you need to make sure that social services is at least aware of the problem now because from my experience if you back her into a corner she will come out with all sorts of allegations and stories that could destroy you and your family.

You are the adult, she needs serious help if she doesn't get it then she will end up in one of two places, jail or dead. I don't mean to be harsh but I have seen this type of situation too many times to count, and it never ends well unless parents and caregivers have the foresight to get help.

You may also want to look into some of the wilderness camps out there that work wonders with these type of kids.

Hope this helps, feel free to ask me for more specific help if needed.
