[QUOTE="ksm, post: 590025, member: 12511"] I have come to realize that I don't know how to have a normal parent/child relationship with my difficult child. I want one... and I am pretty sure difficult child wants one, or at least doesn't want all the arguments. But, the only way she can NOT HAVE AN ARGUMENT, is to get her way, when she wants it, how she wants it. It doesn't matter that I am only trying to keep her safe, educated, and out of the court system. She has 2 D's, an F, and a C- but has an A in choir. SHe has blown thru all her money from Christmas, birthday and babysitting. She dresses inappropriately. Just came home with half her bra showing. I am just sad and overwhelmed that I don't have any positive feelings towards her any more. And I don't know how to improve my outlook. Right now, a positive outcome would be that she gets thru high school and doesn't get pregnant or in juvie. Sometimes that doesn't even seem like an option. In about 10 days I see the neuropsychologist and hopefully testing will be orderd. Just sad, discouraged and overwhelmed. KSM [/QUOTE]
