"My other children, pre-adoption back in Texas, with multiple caretakers,
constantly changing homes, major and very painful breaks in parental
relationships, and some of my children lost other birth siblings into the wind,
well it's no wonder that many of them raged.
They had no other way to
express their profound and very deep emotional pain."
Quoted from one of my favorite bloggers, Big Mama Hollers and completely describing what is happening with our newest addition - our rager from Texas. He fits this bill completely. Mind you, understanding where the rages come from doesn't make it easier for any of us who are in the middle of it... but it does provide a perspective.. And this is the child who just found out his therapist passed away unexpectedly yesterday? How do you add that piece to the already vastly unmanageable emotional soup already brewing in his body? I guess we are about to find out...
