I have a 15 y/o ds, diagnosed ADHD, ODD Bi-Polar, conduct disorder, among other "small" things. He has been in Juvy a couple of times, has been hospitalized in mental facilities a few times, He has some physical abuse issues (the abuser not the abused) and likes to take things that doesn't belong to him. It is very difficult to know when he is telling the truth about anything. BUT, he is very nice looking, he has a great sense of humor, he no longer huffs, he is an honor roll student and has not missed school for 9 years.....but looks like he may fail this year despite being in special ed mainstreamed....the classes and instructions are the same but there are accommodations made for his behavioral issues....
Anyways., he could use a better home than I am able to offer him at the moment..... Of course, I am not REALLY going to send him to anyone on this list, but the point is, yea, sometimes you even gotta let your kids go when you can't give them what they need....We are trying to hold out till school lets out before he goes to another state and into a residential behavioral modifications program.

If it was so important to her she could have said in her add . She never asked me if i would be willing to drive all the way . she just came up with excuses . She has no idea if that other person have any more experance then i do . she never asked . she told me i could have her thta is the thing it is not that i am jelious . I was willing to give the baby a new home no matter of her needs . So when she has a kid with needs too just put in on line and find a new home .

Maybe she found someone who could offer a better home to her chi, maybe it was someone with more experience with special needs or someone closer where she will be able to visit the chi. I work for a rescue group and have a dog with a special need, so I understand that they come with problems, but I would rather the chi be in a home where he can get the care and treatment that he needs, instead of her keeping him because you and others who imitate you put her to shame. She did what was best for her chi and for her situation. Just because you are a mother of five and have five critters makes you no better than her. She does what she can, and if she can give one chi a safe and loving home then that is what she can do and I commend her for that. When she adopted her two dogs she had no idea the dog would require more attention then she has available and she did the right thing by rehoming her. You have no idea what she did try or didn't try. Yes she stated that she took the baby to the vet, but she did not finish that sentence by saying "...and that is all I did." She found a home for this baby, she is not suffering, she has a roof over her head, food in her belly and a warm place to lay her head. You do what you can, and can only expect others to do what they can. Stop judging, you are just bitter that she choose someone other than you to care for this baby. --- In [email protected], Shana Komar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > It is not that i was pouting . It is the fact is that she told me that i could give the puppy a new home . Untill she said that I lived to far away .

Because i would be willing to drive the hole way . I just dont understand . Animals are just like people some have problems and it is not there falt . But then when you end up with a animal with needs oh well it is just to hard to take care of them so lets find a new place for her that is comvient for the owner . What if she was a child with needs would u just give it up to ... maybe this time to the highest bidder ???? because it is not convient for you ... I am a mother of 5 and i have 2 dogs and 3 cats and i have time . I dont understand how some one can say that they dont have time . if you dont then you should not have any anything at all .... you > only tryed once to take her to hte vets , did u try anything eles ?

She was accused of not caring about the home, she replied if she didn't care she could have taken it to a shelter...she didn't say that was an option...she said it could have been an option if she didn't care. My take on all of this is that the other person was pouting because she didn't prefer to drive two hours to meet her until she first saw if she could find an equally good home close by.... > > Marsha > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Patricia > To: [email protected] > Sent: Monday, April 30, 2007 5:48 AM > Subject: RE: [Chihuahuas] Must find my 4 mo. old Chihuahua a new home > > > "..It does not matter to me.

As you might have noticed by all the offers to take Belle (and her problems) we care about our babies. You posted to a world wide group your need to rehome a puppy and rejected all offers. Why did you bother when you where just going to try to relocate her locally or give her to a shelter? Hope you get all those things that need to be done around the house done. Don't forget to feed the dogs. > > To the rest of the group, I am once again back reading posts. Our move has caused major internet problems, so I have missed even more. I just started reading the thread below and maybe I am just tired, no I am tired, but it ticked me off. Sorry. On a better note, our 2 chi's (Trinity and Jay) think that the move to our new house is great. They are loving investigating the second floor, the garage, the basement and the private backyard. Hopefully, I will be back to the group on a regular basis soon.. Just a note, I asked my husband and he agreed to drive from Mass. to MD to take Belle. > ~Patricia > > > --------------------------------- > > From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of J.

I could have easily taken her to the shelter and been done with it. But no, I decided to come here and find her a home. Of course there will always be someone who to be cynical. If you must know, I more familiar with this area since I live here and I'm from here. Also, my weekends are as crazy as my week days. My husband and myself are in the military. He just got back from being gone for 4 weeks and may be leaving soon for 4 months. There are things that must be done around the house now that the weather is better. Pets that need to go to the vet for yearly shots, finals to be complete for college. I didn't think I would have to spell out my life here just to find Belle a suitable home. But the goal has been accomplished and a home has been found for her.
