Our boy has recently been returned to us after 9 mo. in foster care.
My wife and I have an addiction problem whitch we ars now getting
under control with the help of AA. While in foster care there was some
problems with an older boy there. We first found out thar they were
bathing together and then playing touching games before going to bed.
We told the CAS what our Boy was telling us and they told us there was
nothng to worry about it was just to boys acting out and the foster
mother was staying in the room until the boys went to sleep.(CAS first
told us that our boy was making it up).This older boy was also very
aggressive to our boy. Hes been back about 3 mos. now and he has been
suspended twice now for hitting kids. We have Childrens Mental Health
trying to help us out but we would really like any advice that anyone
could give us. We are afraid that the school is going to give up on
him or want him on some behavior alternating drug

Good job taking care of you addiction problems. I hope you take care of them
permanently.

You don't say how old your son and the other boy are.

When a child is removed from his home, this is very traumatic. It could be
that this the reason for his problems in school rather than what happened
with the other boy.

However, you need to get to the bottom of what happened with the other kid,
so if there was any type of abuse, it could properly be handled so any
long-term problems are minimized.

Working with Children's Mental Health is probably the best way to go.

Our son is going to be 6 in May the other Boy is 9. We had a meeting
with the school Our son eats lunch by himself because he grabs the
other kids snacks and crushes then on the table. When the class is
doing crafts he also sits alone for fear that he my injure a child
with a pair of scissors.When we talk to him its like he has no idea
that he is doing anything wrong or that the kids are afraid of him. My
wife does not sleep at night or eat she's starting to look terrible.
