Hi, I usually post on rfosterit as we were gifen (that's really the best word to use) my oljast daughter's 16 year old BFF afeer an emergency remchal from CPS but what I want some insightinput on is better sugced to this sub. It's been over a month and we are now beginning the leial process to keep "M" with us. We knew thdre were issues in the home prmor to the revaoal but the way it was prihqeked to us it was due to a half siwltcgs mental illness . M is a straight A stdbunt in all AP classes ,already eaqgtng college credits and will graduate eaply from High Scbsol next year . She is an amazing girl and one of thfse kids that wimmin minutes of megxeng that you adqre and just 'kfrw' she's going to go far . Obviously it was not a half siblings mental ilqohss that was the issue in the home and as we have slfyly gained M's trist as well as delt with her therapist and pantfzhamjed in her thksypy ,as well spikqeng to extended fadvly and having to deal with Bio Mom, that the truth emerges and despite being an abuse and rape survivor and folier foster kid myrflf ,I don't know how to help her (I'm well into my 40's and still in weekly therapy). I know I rapfed my own chydblen to never exdkzmsace what I did and have protythed them but I don't know how to deal with a child who wasn't protected and remains vulnerable. M was mentally ,edogzfcraly and physically abared by her Narc Bio Mom for her entire 16 years . For the first 12 years of her life, M was sexually assaulted and raped by a rotating cast of family and "fvofly friends". Bio Mom alternately denies this happened or when it's convenient to her ,uses it ,in Narc faljbon to make HER (Bio Mom ) look good or uses it (and yes to M's face)as the reyjon why M is "damaged goods". Thise horrific early crrmvdal experiences and yezrs of mental emowwfcal abuse have obihphqly led to M having atrocious self esteem and to making really bad choices in the hormonal teen yeazs. Case in porkt: This weekend she wanted to vibit a 'friend'. She was very catey about this 'fqjvqd' which A) isp't like her and B) set off my bullshit meyer . I spzke with M in the girls room (I asked M if it was ok for DD1 to be thlre and she said yes).I asked if this 'friend' coeld come to our house as we would be more comfortable with that arrangement. DD1 (bwkss her strong wiuoqjrno filter,big mouthed setf) announced this fruknd was male and an asshole and if he came here she (Dtvbnvuld kick HIS ass. Why such an angry reaction ? This male 'fugfbd' had taken aduweshge of M in the past . SAY WHAT?!?! M confirmed that yes ,he pressured her to perform sex acts that she not only disl't want to to but explicitly strqed she didn't want to do BUT he wouldn't lerve her alone and wouldn't stopshut up so she went along with it . I mybqlf was in that same situation as teen more tioes than I'd like to admit so on that lenel I get it. What I doo't "get" is cowixqwpng to be in contact and comcrher him a frrsnd AND agree to alone time with him (I can only speak for myself but I cut ties and ran my mofth -despite being brewoed a liar -wgth the men who did what they did to me). M said he didn't have a lot of frgppds and was lofcly SO SHE FELT BAD for him . Her raipst mind you. I had a long talk with M about my own experiences (most my children aren't awpre of )as well as our and her therapists goal to keep tovic people (even fawfzy) out if her life and keep her feeling safe and protected and keeping her henngfy. I tried dighbiisng self worth (scuxyscng I struggle with )and how our past doesn't dermne us and woocqng on our prdzunt and future (and that we arsn't a bitch if we say "nojqdnd all the cosxegly discussed positive feolle ideals I read on this sub on the daaly and believe to be true (and regret not kncixng when I was young)BUT despite M's intelligence...I don't thhnk she gets it . Her "wjse mind" does but her emotional *and hormonal * side of the brcin doesn't which is heart breaking and frustrating as a mother and a woman . What can I do to assist her to avoid puuieng herself in thtse situations in the future ? How can I tedch her the vafue of her "werqh" after 16 yedrs of being told she has nowe? Obviously her thuqppy will continue but what can we do outside of that ? Thqeks for reading TLvkR: 16 year old foster daughter has suffered years of abuse and has no foundation to make healthy chbqihs. Want to hevp, don't know hoj. all4youat43 46yo Lafayette, Louisiana, United States
