[QUOTE="cyncan, post: 262498"] Hi This sounds exactly like my GFGSD. Since she is no longer living with us and I am not in the turmoil I was when she was so I have been doing a lot of thinking - how we could have done things better. The wise people on this site have given you VERY good advice. I am thinking I and husband should have stuck to her like glue - and called her on [U]everything[/U]. It became so exhausting and frustrating - we didn't follow through on every single thing - and these kids find the gaps and exploit them. I think the advice here is excellent. She is still young enough to make a difference too. My SD also did the forged signatures - I spent so much time at the school - but I love the idea of shadowing her. I wish I would have done that - but working f/t it was hard. As far as CPS is concerned, we had this issue as well - but they didn't even end up investigating - she had told so many lies to so many people - they all got together and figured it out before even talking to us - however, they did suggest we have her go live with her Mom as our house was out of control (we were all an emotional wreck). As hindsight is 20/20 - absolutely take everyone's advice here, also- make sure you and the rest of the family are taken care of as well - that is SO important - we did not do that and it is still causing emotional problems. Most important - just love her more and more... Cyndi [/QUOTE]
