me and my husband have been married for 2 years now and are planning to have another baby

she has had a very hard life, becuase her sister died when she was 4 and her mother an alcholic and drug abuser and my husband and her mother seperated and she took my step daughter because my husband wasnt in the state to look after her
soon the mother commited suicide and my husband was never informed of this, and went to live with her uncle where she was severally abused and raped
and after that jumped from foster home to foster home
it was only after her suicide attempt a year ago he eventually found her,and now she lives with us but her behavouir is outageous

Answer by Jabberwock
You and your husband need to intervene before she does herself some real damage.

Answer by Dustin S
You need to be there for her. As well as the father if not more so. I would suggest seeking professional help however, she will probably not want to go. You cannot force things upon her. She will (hopefull) reach a point at the bottom and realize something has got to change. As for now, you both need to talk to her, love her, hug her every chance you get. I would seriously suggest professional help.
