The other issue has also happened a few days ago. I woke up with a bad ache like pain in the right side of my
, seems to be
the cheek bone. Again it varies from day to day but it does annoy when I move my mouth and eat. The thing is I was fine then all of a sudden I have these two odd pains in my neck and jaw which I have never had before.

I am very scared about a small lump in my
. Let me start off by saying that I am a healthy (hopefully) 25 year old male. Really, the only thing wrong with me is that I have very bad premature tooth decay which Iave not adequately dealt with that began about 6 years ago. Anyway, a while after having some extensive tooth work done about two years ago, I noticed that I had sore spot under my right jaw.

Now I have a canker
on the left, lower side of my mouth (not on the gum), and I'm experiencing
pain in the same area, under my neck. I can feel where the vein is pulsating with my fingers. My teeth don't hurt when I chew on that side, and there's no sensitivity to temperature (obviously the canker sore stings when things get into it). The jaw pain didn't start until after I started using mouthwash in addition to brushing.

Lymph nodes can be found in a variety of places in the body including the
and chin. These can become swollen from infection, inflammatory conditions, abscess, or even cancer. When swelling appears suddenly and is painful, injury or an infection ( which is the most common cause) may be considered. On the other hand, enlargement that comes on gradually and painlessly may, in some cases, result from malignancy.

A couple of weeks ago I noticed a swollen lymph node
my right
bone curve. It was painful to the touch, including painful sensation/sore throat when swallowing, in the general area. I didn't experience any type of severe symptoms, such as night sweats or fever. A friend who is an oral surgeon put me on amoxicillin and the pain subsided. He also inspected my throat and said my tonsils were a bit swollen as well.

Hello, Lymph nodes swell in one location due to any injury, infection, or tumor developing in or near the lymph node. Which lymph nodes are swollen can help identify the problem. Glands on either side of the
the jaw, or behind the ears are swollen in cold or sore throat. Glands can also swell following an injury, such as a cut or bite, near the gland or when a tumor or infection occurs in the mouth, head, or neck.

While after having some extensive tooth work done (I have severe decay that still persists) about two years ago, I noticed that I had
my right
. When I felt the spot, I could feel a small (bean-sized) lump that was positioned in a hollow space next to the interior of my jaw. The lump seems round, firm (but not hard), and I can freely move it up the other (cheek side) of my jaw.

The glands in my

And once i had a sore throat) off and on the whole time. Though, when i do get better i still have mucus that i'm hawking up throughout the day (its usually clear or bright yellow). I've been given antibiotics twice but it mainly just takes away my headaches and stuff.

It has not changed over the last two years and the are ocassionally feels a bit
. The lump is high mobile..I can move it from
, around the other side, and up a bit. It is not in my skin...it is in the neck cavity, below the skin and tissue. I dont think a lymph node or gland as I do not believe such structures are round or can move so freely. Also, I am under the impression that cancers tend to be attached to tissue, are largely stationary, and tend to grow. Any ideas?

On the left side of my
bone (not back as far as ear) I have had some swelling without pain for about a week. Yeaterday I noticed it fely a little different & lastnight I noticed a mass under my chin on the left side with more pain & my jaw bone is now sore, also. There isn't a tooth in this area so i'm pretty sure it's not from teeth because it doesn't hurt around any of them. The mass is about 1 1/2 x 2 or so.

Aiken County sheriff's Sgt. Chris Chavous knows firsthand how critical incidents can affect those in public safety.
In December 2006, Sgt. Jason Sheppard was struck by a vehicle and killed as he directed traffic at an industrial fire. Chavous assisted with efforts to save Sheppard, and then had to command the scene as the on-duty supervisor.
Eight months later, Cha-vous was involved in an incident in which a suspect stabbed fellow Deputy William Tucker.
"It really affected me," said Chavous, who is also a volunteer firefighter with North Augusta Public Safety. "The two incidents combined took a toll on my marriage."
He and his wife, Melanie, who is a North Augusta Public Safety officer, attended a support program offered through the South Carolina Law Enforcement Assistance Program. SCLEAP is a partnership between the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division; state Department of Natural Resources; state Department of Probation, Parole and Pardon Services; and state Department of Public Safety. It is a free program, thanks to donations and government funding.
"It's a peer-driven support program to take care of police officers – state, federal and local – involved in critical incidents like shootings, line-of-duty deaths and other incidents of that nature," he said of SCLEAP.
Chavous later trained as a peer counselor and has worked with the program in that capacity since 2009.
"I travel mostly around this side of the state to various incidents to assist officers in getting through the incident on the initial side of it," he said.
Through that capacity, he saw a need to expand programs like SCLEAP, so he came up with the idea for Support 1, a nonprofit organization that seeks to support all first responders, including law enforcement, firefighters and EMS personnel, with training and funding to address needs before, during and after critical incidents.
"It's not intended to take the place of anything," he said of creating the organization. "It's just another program."
The organization, founded by Chavous, his wife and fellow North Augusta Public Safety volunteer firefighter Michael Ford, was launched Jan. 1.
When Chavous approached Ford with the idea, he was eager to help.
"He shared his vision with me, and I was immediately on board," he said. "I have always had a huge respect for public safety personnel, and with my involvement with the department, its like a perfect fit. I told him I would be glad to do anything he needed me to do."
In the "before" stage, the organization helps agencies with awareness and stress management by educating them about what a critical incident can be, the impact it can have and helping to provide agencies the funding for its first responders to participate in a program, obtain training or assist with organizing training needs.
After a critical incident, Support 1 offers supplemental funding for the agency's use to address needs of those affected by the incident, which is often not included in an agency's normal operating budget, Chavous said.
Funds will go directly to the agency, which will determine at its discretion the best way to use the funds to address the needs that arise when a critical incident occurs, Ford said.
Support 1 will offer funds to agencies to help first responders participate in peer-support programs.
"If you put a group of policemen and firefighters in a group with just them, they'll talk amongst themselves," said Ford. "If you sit them down in front of a stranger in an office somewhere, it's pretty intimidating. But if you can sit down with your peers and talk about it, that's when the healing happens."
Support 1 is starting with local agencies, but the vision is for it to grow to help agencies throughout the country.
The organization's first fundraiser is a golf tournament planned for April 30 at the Midland Valley Country Club, and sponsorships are available. The Web site www.support1.org, will have an e-store where people can purchase items with the organization's logo and the proceeds will benefit the organization. Businesses, groups and individuals may also help by making donations, he said.
For more information about Support 1, visit www.support1.org. or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.

hemoglobin M
Definition: a group of abnormal Hb's in which a single amino acid substitution favors the formation of methemoglobin in spite of normal quantities of methemoglobin reductase. Strictly speaking, Hb's M are Hb's with mutations at the proximal or distal histidyl residues. Other Hb's M tend to favor the Fe(III) state. Heterozygotes have congenital methemoglobinemia; the homozygous state of these genes is unknown and is presumably lethal. Specific types include: Hb MIwate, a87His?Tyr (a chain, position 87, histidine replaced by tyrosine); Hb M Hyde Park, ß92His?Tyr; Hb MBoston, a58His?Tyr; Hb MSaskatoon, ß63His?Tyr; Hb MMilwaukee-1, ß67Val?Glu.

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- Fans in Detroit and Boston remember the images well.
There was Isiah Thomas' pass stolen by Larry Bird in Game 5 of the 1987 Eastern Conference finals, and Bird passing to Dennis Johnson for the game-winning layup.
There was Vinnie Johnson and Adrian Dantley bumping heads and sitting out the rest of Game 7 of the same series - a Celtics win.
The Pistons and the Celtics resume their playoff rivalry on Sunday at the Palace of Auburn Hills for Game 1 of the second round.
Pistons coach Rick Carlisle remembers the Detroit-Boston rivalry of the 1980s, having played with the Celtics from 1984-1987.
"Those were great matchups," Carlisle said after the Pistons practiced Saturday. "They were furious. They were fun. That's what playoff basketball is all about. I think it's great that a Boston-Detroit series is back."
The franchises haven't known much postseason success since those games.
Boston, which advanced past the Philadelphia 76ers with a 120-87 win in Game 5 on Friday night, won a playoff series for the first time since 1992, Bird's final season.
Detroit, which advanced with its own Game 5 win - over Toronto on Thursday night - won its first playoff series since 1991.
Boston relied on a strong perimeter game and a pair of stars - Paul Pierce and Antoine Walker - to oust the 76ers. Pierce scored 46 points Friday night - the fifth-best performance in Boston playoff history - and the Celtics went 9-of-10 on 3-pointers in the fourth quarter and 19-for-29 for the game. Walker had 26 points, nine rebounds and six assists.
"I think we're meeting the only team in the Eastern Conference that can go deep with us," Walker said.
Detroit players concede that the Celtics present a different challenge from the Raptors, whose balanced offense and bruising defense mirrored the Pistons.
"By watching yesterday, you'd think you just have to take away the 3-pointer, but they are able to adjust to how teams are playing them," said Jerry Stackhouse, who averaged 16.4 points against Toronto.
Boston's two playoff scoring leaders, Pierce and Walker, averaged 30.2 and 24.4 points.
"Pierce is a monster at creating ways to score," Carlisle said. "What they have is a lot of highly skilled players."
Carlisle said Stackhouse, Michael Curry and Jon Barry will be asked to guard Pierce.
Boston attempted (125) and made (58) more 3-pointers than any of the other 15 playoff teams in the first round. The Pistons were second, having made 35 of 94.
"We have to try and take away the 3-point shot," Corliss Williamson said. "They live and die by the 3-point shot."
Each team made an improbable turnaround from disappointing 2000-01 seasons.
For Detroit, the vast improvement hasn't gone unnoticed.
The Pistons boast Williamson, the Sixth Man award winner; Ben Wallace, the NBA Defensive Player; Cliff Robinson, who was named second-team All Defense; and Zeljko Rebraca, who garnered second-team All-Rookie honors.
And Carlisle is a Coach of the Year candidate.
"It's going to be a tough series. ... They've got All-Stars. They've got a Defensive Player of the Year," Boston's Eric Williams said. "We've got guys who can play defense, too, and we've got guys who can score, too. So it's going to be a great series."
Neither team won a road game in the first round, and they split the season series 2-2, with each team winning on its home court.

Saland, Leibell And Molinaro On Dutchess Boces Decision To Delay Vote
A few weeks ago, the taxpayers of Dutchess County learned of Dutchess BOCES's plan to present a $30.3 million bond proposition for a capital project. While there were varied opinions on the merits of the proposal, many immediately questioned their use of a single polling place for in excess of 165,000 voters.
Senator Steve Saland (R,I,C Poughkeepsie), Senator Vinnie Leibell, (R,I,C Brewster) and Assemblyman Marc Molinaro (R,I,C Red Hook) stood up for their constituents and voiced their concerns that far too many taxpayers in Dutchess County would not get the opportunity to vote on a proposition that could have an effect on their property taxes.
Fortunately, Dutchess BOCES responded to the state legislators' and the public's concerns and announced their plans to delay the vote and provide multiple polling places.
"The hard working taxpayers of Dutchess County deserve to have a voice in a decision that may ultimately affect their property taxes," said Senator Saland. "I have consistently fought for taxpayers in my district, sponsoring and voting for legislation designed to help relieve their crushing tax burden. When Dutchess BOCES tried to place a multi-million dollar measure on the ballot, in only one single polling place, it would have resulted in suppressing the votes of countless thousands of taxpayers, precluding their chance to be heard. I thank Senator Leibell, and Assemblymen Miller and Molinaro for joining me in the fight to see that all Dutchess taxpayers will be heard," Saland continued.
"When taxpayers are footing the bill, they deserve a voice in the decision," said Senator Leibell. "Only one polling site in a county the size of Dutchess would have disenfranchised too many voters and restricted voter access. I was proud to join my colleagues in successfully having the vote delayed so that this matter could be addressed," Leibell added.
"The hard working, over taxed residents of this county deserved to have their voices heard. Placing aside the merits of this proposal, BOCES was wrong to deny voters adequate access," said Assemblyman Marc Molinaro. "I appreciate that the BOCES Board of Education listened to the outcry of our constituents. Limiting access and denying broad public participation is not something taxpayers should have to accept, and didn't. Senators Saland and Leibell, and Assemblyman Miller and I will be working to insure that this kind of activity will not occur again."
Senator Saland, Senator Leibell, Assemblyman Molinaro and Assemblyman Miller plan to introduce legislation which will require all BOCES to have an adequate number of polling places for measures which must come before the voters for consideration. The proposal being submitted would allow residents of each component school district to have voter access so they will not need to travel great distances to cast their votes.

I think I Have a carburetor problem but not sure. I had my 77 CJ -7 sitting since Dec, replaced the master cylinder in Feb, then couldn't find anyone to help me bleed the brakes left for active duty for summer. Now I'm back, and battery was completely dead. Charged it up and then decided to replace it (Red Top). The jeep will crank but not start up. So I put gas in the carburetor adn it started right up but then died. This has happened quite a few times now. Vehicle has about a 1/2 tank of gas (was on a slope with tank on the lower end and is now level). Can't figure out what it is. Lines are all in good shape. Ground is good, terminals are tight, battery is charged, shouldn't be the alternator or the starter. Wondering if I need to clean the carb.

Hey there!
Haven't seen an Arma 3 thread here during my browsing, so I'm unsure whether any of you are at all interested in it, but if you just want to check it out then I am doing a small steam-key giveaway for the Alpha Lite version of the game. The game itself is a reasonably complex modern combat simulator, with awesome gun-play, vehicle and aircraft shenanigans and much more. I have 200 keys for this Lite version and shall be giving away 50 per week, first come first serve!
The Alpha Lite version that I'm giving away keys for contains:
- 3 Singleplayer Showcases, allowing you to play around with Infantry combat, ground vehicles, and aircraft gameplay.
- The Editor mode, which allows you to make your own missions and make NPCs fight each other, spawn hundreds of helicopters, whatever you want to do.
- There is unfortunately no multiplayer gameplay in the Lite version of the Alpha, as it is more designed to give you a first look at the game and it's features.
Without further ado, here's the video of the giveaway:
Unsure if this is supposed to go into the video thread, as it is more about a giveaway/competition than actual game footage.

Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on adoption.
how can I help my anxious daughter?(44 Posts)
Hi, DD is 9, adopted at 7 months. I would like to help her with her anxiety problems but I am at a bit of a loss about how to and where to start - I have looked at books to help kids in general deal with anxiety and then I have been rereading 'Twenty things adopted children wish their parents knew' which seems to focus more on therapeutic help such as helping them to grieve their loss and helping them to realise they have special needs arising from adoption.
DD doesn't have any diagnosis or anything. She manages well academically and has friends but I have always been aware of how anxious she gets underneath. Lately she has started verbalising to me how anxious she gets. Most of her anxiety is social. She doesn't cope well with groups or new people. Her teacher has told me she is very quiet in school and that there is a danger that children like her will get ignored by teachers. If she is a group situation she withdraws/closes down and the same with new people. We both work but have had to stagger our hours so that we can pick her up from school as she becomes highly distressed if we even casually mention her going to an after school club for a day or two a week.
She seems fearful of being wrong or shamed. She is very well behaved, too well behaved for a 9 year old. She apologises often even when she has done nothing wrong and someone is correcting her so they can help her. Last night I became irritable with her because she kept saying 'sorry' and she became very upset. She then apologised for saying sorry too much Bad mother .
She always thinks of others before herself e.g. if I ask her what she wants to do she will ask me what I want to do and will then worry that if she gets to choose then I will be unhappy.
Over the years she has had a myriad of fears, the current one being shop security alarms going off when we are leaving. This happened a few times over xmas and now she has developed a fear of shops as she is afraid the alarm will go off (even when we haven't bought anything!) and everyone will look at us.
In between all the above she is a happy girl with lots of interest but I am worried for her future as she lets her fears stop her doing things. I am particularly worried about the change to secondary school - bigger classes with strangers and strict teachers will make the transition very difficult for her.(Recently she changed her swim school and it took me 25 minutes to persuade her to get out of the car and into the building.)
A friend has recently said that she might be picking up her behaviour from me. I do worry about her but I am not socially phobic and I don't have excessive fears/phobias so I'm not sure if she is right.
Would a book on anxiety in kids be the way forward or should I be looking for a more adoption related book? Any similar experiences or advice would be very welcome
I have no specific exerience of adoption so I hope you don't mind me responding but I would think that it might be very difficult to establish whether your DD's anxiety relates to her being adopted or not. It could be down to her natural personality, her adoption, something else- or a combination of many things.
You sound like a lovely mum and I do hope you can find a way to help your DD.
In your shoes I think I might be considering some kind of therapy as it does sound like her anxiousness is beginning to affect her everyday life. I guess this becomes tricky though as she might feel she has somehow 'let you down' by being over-anxious and needing some help.
I do not want to upset you but wanted to let you know that my mum is a naturally anxious person, and at times of stress her anxiousness becomes a real problem. As a child this did affect me, making me anxious, and making me feel worried about causing my mum extra worry. I have had some therapy and am now much more aware of how to handle my worries and fears. I'm not suggesting that this is the case in your situation, but it might be possible that your have got into a vicious cycle whereby she is picking up on the fact that you are worried about her which could further fuel her anxiety.
Me again , there was a good thread on MN a while ago about being a natural introvert. It might be helpful to read this to see if your DD sounds like she is nsturally shy or whether it is something more that that.
Hi Stickwithit I'm very interested to know how your mum's stress manifested itself or was it just a feeling you got from her. I'm not aware of verbalising my worry over DD.
She sounds similar to our eldest dd whom we adopted when she was two and a half. She is now almost 14.
She is very keen to be helpful and anxious about many situations, she has come out of her shell a lot since she started high school.
We have learnt to be very patient with her and to constantly reassure her about everything. I'm not sure if it is due to her adoption or just her nature but all I can suggest is lots of reassurance and patience.
Unfortunatley I do find it quite difficult to put my finger on exactly how my mum's stress was obvious as a child. I will try to explain a but, I apologise if it doesn't make sense.
I guess her words and actions showed me that she was always worried about things going wrong- in a pessimistic way. So maybe, my mum always seemed more worried about things that my friend's mums didn't seem to bat an eyelid over. She would chatter about the things that might go wrong in a situation, focus on stuff she had heard of read about things that can happen to people (e.g. ATM she is worried about research that hard knocks can cause cancer).
At a park she would constantly tell me to be careful, going to a party she would constantly remind me about behaving myself (I was a very well behaved child).
When mum was upset she easily fell apart and that made me feel unsafe, so I avoided doing anything to cause her worry or upset.
It is almost easier to explain what my mum wasn't somehow- she wasn't strong, or resilient, optimistic or reassuring. She is lovely in her own way but her anxiety did affect me deeply (not that I understood this as a child), it left me without that core strength of believing that I could cope with whatever life threw at me.
Apologies if that sounds like a rant, I find it hard to explain.
You said you are not aware of verbalising your worry over DD, but it could be that perhaps it is a more your general worry about other things that is teaching her to be an anxious person. If you have a feeling that your own anxiety could be contributing to your DD's problem, it might be worth seeing a counsellor / therapist (mine transformed my life).
It is really important that I say though, that it is impossible for me to be objective about your situation, and very easy for me to see it through the window of my own experience. It may very well be the case that your DD's anxiety has nothing to do with you at all...
Moomoomie, I have learned to be so much more patient than I used to be. I am trying to be even more patient but sometimes with the constant reassurance I just lose it
Ahh, I see what you mean Stickwithit. I would say that is definitely not me. I don't worry in that pessimistic way, if I do worry it's about DD.
She sounds very like my sister (who is not adopted) I think it's great that you've noticed and want to take some proactive steps rather than just hoping she will grow out of it. DSis is now 21 and still like this
This is unrelated as well, but a friend of mine struggles with anxiety and she had CBT last year. One of the things she said that she did in the sessions was that her counsellor just went through situations which worried her, asking her "Okay, and then what would happen?" In my friend's case it was that she was worried about feeling or being sick in public. This technique, simple as it sounds, helped her rationalise what would happen - she would find a toilet, be sick in the toilet, and it wouldn't be nice but then it would be over and nothing bad would happen. It helped her feel a lot calmer. I wonder if you could do something like this with the alarm situation?
How is she with taking physical risks? I'd usually suggest some kind of drama/music workshop for shy children but it sounds like this would be the very worst thing for her. Something my DP does is rock climbing (on indoor walls) - the teaching groups for this are very small, usually one on one because of the safety aspect, and they definitely make harnesses small enough for 9 year olds. You could go in with her too unlike something like swimming classes. DP and his friends all agree it's very confidence building to be able to think "I climbed that!" and that confidence should come through into other things. Also, because you get a bit of an adrenaline rush from doing something which is scary (even though you're safe with harnesses etc) it might help her come to terms with that feeling and understand that it's not a bad feeling to have.
There is a book called The Great Big Bag of Worries which is very good at speaking about fears. Your dd must be frightened and fear is the most difficult emotion to control. She needs to learn to be less fearful. Have you thought about something like indoor rock climbimg which is very good at harnessing adrenelin and getting that part of the brain in gear. It will make her realise that she can deal with stressful situations. It is great that you are trying to tackle this now as anxiety and living with constant fear is life sapping and will become much more difficult to manage as she grows up.
x post there!
BertieBotts. I have explained the mechanism of how the alarms are set off but she is still scared even when we haven't bought anything! Also if she feels the slightest pressure to do something she gets more anxious. Glad it's working for your friend though.
I totally agree about the great feeling you get when you do something scary and the confidence it creates too. Unfortunately, she is also very afraid of physical risks - tried to get her up a climbing wall a couple of years ago and she wouldn't go near it. She is much more afraid if others are watching, like she is afraid of embarrassing herself in public, that she will look stupid
Hi OP,
Your DD sounds just like me at her age, and I was adopted as a baby too although I agree with others that she may just be naturally sensitive / more prone to worrying ... Don't discount the adoption as a factor though.
Her fear of making you unhappy, by doing/choosing something you might not like, particularly resonated with me. It's very common in adopters apparently. Guilt and gratitude (I've begun exploring this recently, encouraged by other MNetters). We are often made to feel grateful for being adopted, and we feel guilty if we don't ....or if we do something to upset our parents ....vicious circle! (I'm not suggesting that you make your daughter feel this way - you may already be well aware of this, and consciously not do it - but I know it's something that other people can invoke by ceaselessly chosen words such as "ooh aren't you lucky to have such a lovely mummy" etc).
I think you do sound like a lovely mum who is obviously well aware that there are many issues of grief and loss that can arise from adoption (I wish my parents had acknowledged this, rather than burying their heads in the sand, although this was 40 years ago and they may well have been completely unaware / not advised that such things could occur). As long as you are acknowledge your DD's feelings, I think you and she will ultimately be fine, I think.
I have this book about sensitive children at home - I have only read a couple of chapters so far but it seems pretty good and I think it was recommended to me by another MNetter - www.amazon.co.uk/Highly-Sensitive-Child-Children-Overwhelms/dp/0007163932/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1357829673&sr=1-1 - might be useful for you?
Your DD may be terrified of being rejected, hence the constant need for reassurance. Or she might be playing you! - my DS, who is 8, is highly sensitive and he also completely melts down at the mention of after-school clubs etc. He genuinely doesn't like them but he definitely likes the feeling of power/control it gives him, so we are both working on it!
When DS' fears re school got too much for him I took him to see a fabulous lady called Andrea Lindsay who does hypnotherapy/NLP for kids - she got him to do positive reinforcement-type techniques and relaxation, and now he is able to talk about his worries and, crucially, to control them. Feel free to PM me for her details if you like (I don't have them to hand at the moment). She's based in Bournemouth.
I think the main thing is to listen to your DD's fears and never say "don't be so silly" or minimise her feelings in any way. Let her express her fears, acknowledge them, and then explain why/how those fears are unwarranted and how they can be managed .... I wish my mum had done this, rather than just glossing over everything and pretending it would go away. Could have saved my a fortune in therapy in my thirties!!
Happy to chat more if you like, and good luck x
Yes MrsMcEnroe I have been rereading the Twenty things adopted kids wish their parents knew and I really do see DD in there, not in the acting out behaviour but in the guilt, shame, and fear of rejection. On Xmas day after she opened her presents she said to me 'I'm so lucky I've got a family' which makes her sound like a sweet girl in writing but left me feeling quite uncomfortable.
How would you have liked your parents to open the subject of grief/loss in adoption?
btw, I've got the Highly sensitive child book, will have to reread that one as well.
The big bag of worries is one of the books I have looked at buying Bamboo
Am going out now but would love to hear from other adoptive parents/adoptees
Hi foreva
How would I have liked my parents to open the subject of grief/loss in adoption?
That's a very hard question to answer actually!! More so because my parents are dead now, so I don't have the opportunity to discuss it with them and to ask them how they were feeling about everything at the time it was going on. I'll brain dump here, if I may, in the hope that some of it may answer your question ...
My parents were very open about the fact that I was adopted, and they were lovely in their honesty about how much they had wanted a baby and how much they loved me from the moment they met me . Argh I'm welling up as I type this!! My mum was very good at being emotionally available to me so whenever I had questions I felt that I could ask her, and she was extremely frank in her answers. I honestly don't believe that she knew anything about the guilt/gratitude thing; I think in those days you were handed a baby and that was pretty much it. I know that she only had one day's notice that she was finally going to be a mum!!(after 8 years of trying for a baby and then registering for adoption, and my birth mother changing her mind for six weeks after I was born).
A a child I identified very strongly with my mum - I don't know if this was due to adoptee's gratitude or whether I was naturally empathetic. Or a combination of the two. I felt very strongly her sense of loss at not being able to have biological children, even though she never actually talked about it (it came more from what she didn't say, and from things my grandmother - her mum - used to
tactlessly drunkenly accidentally let slip at family gatherings.
I also identified very strongly with my birth mother, whose name I knew (unusually for the time, when all adoptions were closed adoptions with no biological contact) as my mum told me the story of how I can to be adopted, and she always emphasised how much my birth mother loved me but was too young to be able to keep me with her.
What I've written so far suggests that actually there may have been *too much* honesty in my childhood! I'm not sure. I think there was too much honesty about the adults' feelings and nobody ever asked about my feelings. I remember crying on my 14th birthday and feeling a profound sense of loss for my birth mother. My mum just didn't know what to say or how to react. She was kind about it, but didn't offer any words of wisdom, and *my dad was was never involved - I never felt comfortable discussing my adoption with him* - I think I was afraid that he would get upset of angry although I had no evidence to suggest that this would happen.
OK, so having poured all that out, I can now answer your question! - I wish that my mum had asked me how I felt about being adopted, and that she (generally speaking, not just regarding adoption but everything) had acknowledged that all my feelings and emotions were valid, even if they were unreasonable/over-anxious/didn't correspond with how she was feeling, etc. Again, I know that part of that was down to the parenting style/fashion of the times, but I can't put it all down to that; my parents were very much of the "children will just fit into our lifestyle and we won't make any adjustments" school of parenting. I was often told "oh don't be so silly" when I expressed emotions that my mum didn't want/know how to deal with, which led (I think) to me being afraid of upsetting her. *I am not suggesting that this is what you have done, however!!!!*
So, I wish that the adoption conversations could have been two-way, instead of me asking all the questions and receiving all the answers; I wish that my mum had asked me questions, even at the risk of upsetting me, because it would have shown that she appreciated that my situation was not the norm. As it was, with no acknowledgement that I was entitled to feel differently from other children who were growing up in their birth families, I think I felt like a passenger, with no control over my own life.
Wow. That is the first time I have allowed myself to express any of that!!!
Something along the lines of, "darling, if you ever feel sad about being adopted, or if you have any worries that you want to talk about, you can always come to me and I will always listen. I love you very very much and your feelings are very important to me."
That sort of thing would do for starters. I wouldn't have to be more specific than that; just open the channels of communication so that DD knows she can talk to you. Gradually introduce adoption-specific topics when you feel the time is right, and don't be afraid to just jump in there if an opportunity arises, even if you aren't in an ideal setting ... Sometimes it might be easier to talk about these things on the bus, or in the supermarket, rather than sitting down at the table at home for a specific chat - takes the pressure off a bit, I think.
I would really recommend Andrea Lindsay, she is fantastic - www.halohypnotherapy.com - you could have a telephone consultation just to get some ideas if you weren't able to get to see her in person. She is a qualified psychotherapist as well, and she has children of her own so she really knows how to relate to them. She was wonderful with my DS. He saw her this time last year, so he would have been aged 7, in year 3 at school.
Thanks so much for that long brain dump Mrs McEnroe, it's a real eye opener!. I have to admit I gulped a bit whilst reading it - although I regularly mention adoption related stuff I can't remember asking DD how she's feeling about her adoption and DH, like your dad, is never involved either. I'm actually dying to ask her but afraid of..well I'm not really sure what I'm afraid of really. But I will ask her now using something like the words you say. I'll let you know how I get on.
If things are still difficult I will look into the therapist you mention to. Thanks x
Just keep the channels of communication open, that's a good place to start.
I am off to read more of the Sensitive Child book tonight, following a long, tearful conversation with DS just now in which he insisted that everyone at school hates and him and nobody plays with him .....apparently he sat on his own for the whole playtime today ..... not sure whether he's telling the truth or over-dramatising! Bit tearful for him. Well, very tearful.
Kids do feel loss very keenly. He misses my mum, who died nearly 5 years ago but who was a huge presence in his life.
Urgh. Bit complex this parenting thing, isn't it...???!!!!! Magic wand needed! x
Just a thought, feel free to ignore if I'm off the mark, this is based on what I think my mum was feeling ... Do you think you've been scared to ask your DD how she feels about the adoption in case she says something that will upset you? Especially something about wanting her birth mother?
You'd only be human if this were the case. But she won't want her birth mother in preference to you; she'll want to know about her. It's very different. (I met my birth mother when I was 18 and we've remained in contact but I do not, and never have, thought of her as my mother - just wanted to reassure you of that). x
I agree that it may be partly her personality but I do feel its also adoption related. Like the person who said "so what's the worst that can happen? " .well the worst that can happen is that your parenst and your whole family abandon you!!!! And that's alreday happened to her. No wonder she wants to please you
I get such a feeling of sadness from reading your post and I'm nt sure why. I wonder if she's very unhappy under her usually cheerful exterior , that this is about sadness and loss which manifests as anxiety . Especially about things she can't control ( like shop alarms and people leaving her )
I also agree that you should get her some professional help, preferably from a therapist or counsellor with experince in adoption. You should do this now, before adolescence, which I'm afraid will make it worse.
DD in bed now. Funnily enough the book we read before bed was about a mother and daughter so when we finished reading I mentioned that she could always talk to me if she had sad/bad feelings about birth mum/adoption, something on those lines anyway, and she looked contemplative. Hopefully she'll have a think and when the right moment arises she might be able to talk to me.
I don't think I'm scared of her saying she misses her bmother. I think I'm scared that if I mention bad feelings then I might cause her to have those bad feelings - very childish/superstitious of me to think that way.
Yes, parenting, it's not easy is it? Hope your DS feels better at school tomorrow x
Its not childish -It's only natural that you don't want to " put ideas into her head". But it's good that you have told her that its ok to talk to you, that you can handle it and be a safe container for her feelings. Maybe she's worried that if she lets them out they will overwhelm her .
Just to warn you -the "right moment"for her might be totally the wrong one for you !!! kids often decide to talk when you are in the car negotiating the rush hour or other busy time when you can hardly think, let alone empathise!
If she does decide to talk, it's best if you can just listen without trying to fix her feelings or problems or explain things. We parents alway want to make it all better. But sadly what happened to her can't be fixed. She just needs to work it through a bit.
Please do think about getting some help for her
Kristina, my gut feeling is that it's adoption related too but I think I may have let other people convince me that a) she's ok, just shy, will grow out of it and/or b) I'm worrying too much about her.
How would I get a therapist experienced in adoption?(I live in the midlands btw)

Principal Strategic Planner, Kingston City Council, Victoria
Urmi has a background in architecture and 10 years' experience working in the public sector in three countries – Australia, India and Qatar.
During her professional career, Urmi has been involved in a range of urban planning projects with a focus on place making – from city master plans and structure plans to urban design frameworks.

35th Recontres de la Photographie Arles, France, until 19 September
In his introduction to the catalogue for the 35th annual Recontres de La Photographie festival, the director, François Hebel, refers to the curator as 'oh-so British Martin Parr'. Anyone, though, who came to Arles last weekend expecting an Anglo-centric vision of the world, and the world of photography, would have been disappointed. Parr's curatorial view was spectacularly wide-angled, taking in the everyday and the surreal, the vernacular and the post-modern, and casting an insider's eye over the past and the possible future of photography. The Arles festival is now the key European event on the photography map, and, in the past decade, its rich mix of shows, workshops, discussions and evening projections, has reflected the shift from reportage and social documentation towards what might be termed conceptual photography. Here, with Parr at the helm, that term was stretched to its limit by, at one extreme, the heightened colours of Keith Arnatt's close-up studies of the detritus of landfill sites - discarded sponge cake, bacon, plastic - and, at the other, Neeta Madahar's exquisite studies of the birds who came to feed in the garden of her rural Massachusetts flat. I was much taken, too, with Paul Shambroom's painterly 'Meetings' series, in which he photographed council meetings in small-town American communities, then printed the images onto canvas and varnished them. Compositionally, these images recalled the Old Masters, but the sense of bureaucracy and boredom was utterly modern.
Another kind of contemporary ritual was played out in Hans van der Meer's photographs of Sunday League football games across Holland and Provence. Armed with a stepladder and a wide-angle camera, van der Meer stood on the sidelines of countless unkempt pitches, and, often against beautiful natural backdrops of hills and trees, caught all the sad endeavour and ragbag glory of the amateur game. His photographs are cut through with a kind of melancholy humour, though the peculiar madness of middle-aged men becomes downright hilarious in the low-key video that accompanies the show.
Another strand that ran through the festival was what Parr terms 'vernacular photography', or images that, consciously or otherwise, reflect the beauty of the everyday. To this end, Parr showed his own collection of illustrated photographic trays, everything from trays advertising cars to trays decorated with seaside images, as well as his ongoing collection of Saddam Hussein watches. In the same space, there is one of the most beautiful examples of 'found photography' I have ever seen, albeit a mere fraction of the 2,448 carefully mounted slides belonging to Leo P. Polhuis, and discovered after his death in an attic by his son-in-law. With no pretensions to art or reportage, Polhuis simply photographed family birthdays, Christmases, and holidays, chronicling every image down to the film used. An industrial designer, he was blessed with a natural eye for composition and image, and the results have a cumulative power that is both enchanting and oddly moving.
More moving still, though in an altogether more shocking way, was the Lodz Ghetto Archive by Henryk Ross, a Jewish photographer held prisoner by the Germans and forced to produce propaganda images. He secretly photographed ordinary life in the ghetto, as well as recording atrocities, burying his negatives when the Germans began the liquidation of Lodz. The images here, many damaged, some blurred, are by turns poignant and deeply shocking, a unique historical document, as well as a crucial body of evidence.
Parr also took this chance to restate the case for two of the key figures in postwar English photojournalism, Chris Killip, and the late Tony Ray-Jones. Killip's show was made up of stark black and white images from his now much sought after 1988 book In Flagrante, a startling glimpse of the working-class communities of the north-east of England in the late Seventies and early Eighties, a time that looks suddenly as distant as the Thirties. Ray-Jones's work, though more understated, was just as definably English, capturing the nation's oddness in the social rituals of Eton and Glyndebourne, as well as garden and street parties. One could suddenly sense, too, the shift that occurred in English social photography when Parr embraced close-ups and saturated colour in his work, which, though dramatically different in tone and texture, belongs somehow to this starker, but 'oh-so English' lineage.
Les Recontres d'Arles, though, is also an event stretched over six days, and one of the highlights was the nightly open-air evening show, with guest speakers and projections on a giant screen. An American photographer from the Yale school, Mitch Epstein, presented a poignant video as well as stills, recording his father's descent into financial liquidation. A self-effacing Dutch man called Hans Aarsman gave the funniest illustrated lecture of the festival, entitled 'Useful Photography' after the magazine he helps edit. Aarsman described himself as a former photographer, dismayed by the dominance of images in which 'you are not looking at the world, you are looking at photography'. His talk celebrated the truly functional and mundane work of the practical photographer: a man who photographs flyovers for a city council, another who takes pictures of meat for fast-food outlets, as well as images of items for sale on eBay. This was the triumph of the everyday in all its surreal banality.
There is not enough space here to reflect the full range of work displayed at Arles this year - the exhibitions stay in place until 19 September, and you can get there via cheap Ryanair flights to nearby Nîmes - but the sense of event was palpable, not least when everyone collected in the town squares at night to eat, drink and discuss the day's events. Sunday's extravagant prize-giving ceremony was orchestrated by Robert Wilson, and an unsuspecting Jonathan de Villiers, winner of the 'No Limits' award for his subversive fashion photography, had his envelope delivered to his table by an actual elephant.
My own selection of must-see work would include the aforementioned van der Meer and Madahar, as well as Osamu Kanemura, whose images of an overloaded Tokyo are startlingly unfamiliar. James Mollison's 'Great Apes' series, close-ups of orphaned chimps, gorillas and bonobos, are funny and sad, while Ewan Spencer's documentary shots of teenagers at play - drinking, pulling, snogging - are both intimate and arresting, as if he is an invisible observer of age-old courtship rituals.
My abiding memory of this year's festival is an image that I carry only in my head; that of the curator, Martin Parr, in his 'oh-so British' uniform of shirt, shorts, dark socks and shoes, running hither and thither among the hordes, always leaving one event, and on his way to another, often carrying a kitsch object of one kind or another, donated by an admirer, under his arm.
The man was ubiquitous and unflappable, carried along on the buzz of a great event, brilliantly curated. He will, as ever, be a hard act to follow.
