[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 287847, member: 84"] Since you explained it better, and I've got a better idea of what's going on.......... I wouldn't rescue her. I sometimes think one of the hardest lessons for teens to learn is how their attitude/behavior effects others. But it is a vital lesson for them to get before venturing out into the real world. It seems her immaturity is rearing it's ugly head. (aren't teens so much fun?) She got caught sneaking off with a boy. (raging hormones, gotta love em) Huge embarrassment coupled with conscequences. She gets defensive and out comes the attitude......which of course only makes everything worse. When you talk to her again, I'd try talking her thru how she could've handled the situation better, the whole situation, not just what happened before the phone call. Then tell her that you have faith in her ability to make things right and make this work for her. But I wouldn't rescue. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
