[QUOTE="ksm, post: 457324, member: 12511"] Broken phone... too bad. Limited computer... smart move. I would try to distract her and have "reading time" I am lucky and my two love to read. Also, at 12 she can be helping in the kitchen. Don't make it "work or chores" - call it fun - she GETS to make brownies! etc. Regarding the medications... is she really taking them, or tossing them when no one looks. I'd be standing there watching when time to take medication. Can your mom get her involved in school or community activities? Keep busy!! Limit the friend. When my girls have a friend I really don't like - I make sure and invite them over for supper. Then the only time I let them hang out is at my house. After a while, either the friend conforms to house rules, or they get bored and don't want to come over. Works most time, but once, the "friend" stole our latest Wii game. Go figure. KSM [/QUOTE]
