[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 420510, member: 1550"] Has she ever seen a neuropsychologist? Her behaviors are very worrisome. They are likely to get worse, as you are seeing, they are spreading...unless she gets proper treatment. Whether or not you use medication, she needs professional help. The usual story with such severe behavior is that it progresses with time and by the teen years...it is already so out of control that you are seeing the juvenile justice system. You should not live in fear. I have a few questions that will help us help you. 1/Has she ever been evaluated by a neuropsychologist? 2/Are there any psychiatric or neurological problems on either side of the genetic family tree? Unfortunately, some things are inherited. 3/Are both of you her natural parents? Any siblings who may be at risk by this behavior? I'm not sure what you can do at home by yourself for her, but I think a new and updated evaluation by a neuropsychologist is a good start at figuring out what is wrong and getting help for it. Talk therapists are not trained to do testing and evaluating. You may want to do a signature like I did below. Welcome to the board! :) [/QUOTE]
