I took the stupid parenting asessment. This dr basically starts off with why should we give you another child to raise after your daughter turned out like this.I have 3 children, 1 in navy, 1 16 yo over-achiever college freshman. Why don't people realize that there is a point when our children start making their own decisions, and when they use the free will that God gave them, it's not my fault.Of course I know I'm not perfect, of course I know I have a child who has problems. Unfortunately, she ignores any advice I have on her behavior, her love life, her attitude. She is doing a  little better, she has a job at least. If she will just stop waiting on a knight in shining armor she will get through this.Now I'm hearing that the assessment results takes about 2 weeks, that's rediculous. These delays are unfair to my grandson, as he continues to get older with his foster family, I don't know when I should stop fighting, I don't want to hurt him by taking him from people he loves.
