Just guard yourself here as a warning. My best friend took on her step daughter when her real Mama couldn't handle her any longer. She spent 5 years of her life helping that girl become a better person. She did all the dental work the kid needed and got her glasses and helped her learn to dress decently. She taught her how to be respestful and basically gave her the world. In the end, she called CPS and filed a complaint of child abuse on her. There was a massive investigation and nearly got my friend in some MAJOR trouble. CPS even interviewed me because the child had the nerve to tell them I was her best friend and I had kids she didn't need to be around. Long story short, after the investigation it was deemed the child was lying due to the fact that Daddy told her she couldn't date that 18 + year old boy (kid was 13) and she wanted to prove she could. Ended up back with her real Mama and not only that boy but has dated several over age boys, dropped out of school, and basically is now running with a local gang. All in all it devastated my girlfriend who loved her to death. Sometimes you cannot fix the problems you didn't create. Just be very very careful.
