[QUOTE="LSH44, post: 542078, member: 14939"] Thank you so much for the kind words. She has always had a problem with her temper. Discipline never had any effect. When i was a kid, and I got in trouble, I was dog-eyed and humbled and would want so badly to be back in my parent's good graces. When i would discipline her, she would get angry and act as though she had suffered an injustice. I took away little things like computer and TV, and big things such as school dances. Nothing seemed to leave her with a lesson learned other than that her punishment was a grave injustice done towards her. She's now telling all our friends and neighbors that we are terrible people who are kicking her out with no where to go. If I were here, I think I would be embarrassed to have people know that I had behaved so badly that my parents were kicking me out. I don't know if she is seeking sympathy or maybe she is looking for someone to confirm to her that we are bad people. i asked her tonight if she had any idea where she was going to go, and she said no. She said "I have nowhere to go." [/QUOTE]
