Hi I am Dianne. I have a teenage son whom I adopted 6 yrs ago. Lots of baggage and we are struggling to navigate teen years as well as all the issues he has. Wanna chat?

Hello, Dianne, and welcome to cc. From what I have observed, the teen years can be quite frustrating. I am glad you have joined the site, I hope you enjoy the fellowship and make many new friends.

Hi Dianne, it truly is a brave and extremely great act of self-sacrificial love to take another child into your care as your own. It is something truly admirable and Christ-like, and I think it is a beautiful thing you have done ;), and I hope the God grants you wisdom in dealing with the difficult teenage years (particularly with all the added issues that adoption brings), I do pray that you know His love and Presence with you and your family in this time, and know that even in the toughest situations He is will you in it, ready to walk through it with you, and will bring you through it. No matter how difficult things are, He is always faithful and you can trust Him, lean on Him and pour it all out to your Father who accepts you without reservation. And I pray that you are brought into many good relationships with others both here, and I hope where you live that assure you you are not alone, and will make you see you are part of a loving community that is with you your troubles.

God bless and welcome :D

Ah. Teen years are rough... I hope that this can give you the support you need during this time. Maybe the family forum would help some? Or if you need to chat my inbox is open too. You're definitely welcome here :)
