Feeling a bit better now....

We ended up having a good day -- except of course for the point when she said that she was walking out the moment she turns 16 (which is the day she no longer HAS to do what the social workers want). So, at some point in the next few months I'm really going to have to hope we bond enough to be able to convince her that it's worthwhile to be in a family that cares about you. (It makes me wonder what our society was thinking when they decided that 16 year olds are mature enough to be on their own.) But, I probably can't worry about that issue yet.
