Hello again, Bob, and thanks again for all you're counsel to us here at NDN. It's very appreciated and your input is very valuable to us.

I just wanted to mention that my husbands son, now 14 soon 15, came to us a couple of years ago. He was raised by his mother in the Family. The problem was compounded by the fact that she never stayed anywhere more than a year or just a few months. He's a strong willed boy and that got him into a lot of trouble with the adults who never felt any closeness to him. He would rebel and they would either hit him or wash his mouth with soap, whatever. Pretty harsh treatment.

Anyway, I was wondering if you take teens his age as it seems he has a lot of baggage he's carrying around. He's doing lots better than in the beginning, but he still has some issues.
