[QUOTE="Jena, post: 223149, member: 4514"] I'm sorry as much as i appreciate your input and thoughts and time in responding. I do not agree whole heartedly. I am just now beginning to look into them, ponder the thoughts, etc. So obviously no clear decision has been made as to how to move forward with this. I'm kinda sitting on it and taking my time. So that i make sure i handle it the right way. In order to get the "full" picture you would have to know her is all i can say. lol. truly. easy child is gorgious, beautiful, smart funny outgoing, etc. she attracts a whole lotta ppl with this outgoing ways and the looks in regards to the boys. I've had her evaluated and gues what she's not depressed, nor does she have a negative self image. Sure like typical teenagers there might be oh i gained a few pounds, yet she eats like a horse. She thinks she's amazing, in all areas. I think there are some self esteem issues that the pyschdoc didn't pick up on a year ago. Yet there are those in most teenagers, I had them bigtime. Yet our society isnt' what it was when we were kids. Sex sells these days and not just "regular" sex these kids are going into whole other realms of it. Her main importance in her life is her boyfriend, her friends, and track. That's it. bottom line. She doesn't care if she'd have to walk over my bleeding body (sorry dramatic lol) to get what she wanted. She manipulates till she gets her way and boy is she good at it. I just wrote a whole long response 'm not sure if you read it. Yet point being something has to be done. Contracts, door's off hinges, punishments, that ain't gonna do it this time. Nope. Therapy at this age doens't work unless they want it to work, i've also tried that route as well. As far as her acclimating to life home again after 2 years away at school till we get thr senior year (if i can even do this), that's neither here nor there. I do not care if her supposed friends are gone and off on their own. Their part of the problem with their step by step guide the other night on what to do to him. I'm good with that. If she's not oh well, tha'Tourette's Syndrome life. wE all make mistakes and there are consequences to those mistakes. That is also a huge part of teaching them what real life is like I think.
