[QUOTE="compassion, post: 348187, member: 6393"] In my expereince it is th mental illness (bipolar) that contributres to the behavior (conduct disorder) no linking consequences with actions. Read all you can on bipolar. CABF is excellent and Nami has great info too. Ill not bad is the perspeictive I choose. My daughter,now nearly 17 is 100s times better that she is on antipyctic/mood stabilizer. After mania was under control , Stratera weas addedfor focus and today she did 15 minutes of 11th grade wor4ld hisorty with me. She has her pernit an dis drivng. I do have to guard my stuff very vigiantly. The impusle contorl is so bad that I have to dole out oney by the day, avoiding much cash. When very unstable, could not reason. Detrachment helps a lot. We ahve been through the stealing,drivng without a license, even taking a jail tour then forgin checks. She also wants to ive very large (expensive house), identifies with being a college student (part of the grqadiosisty that goes with bipolar) but still is in 11th grade. I have to brqak stuff way,eay down for her. I have to majorally choose my battles. She smokes cigs . My boudnary, I donot buy them for her. I do not allow her to smaoke in my car. Boundaries, boudnaries, boundareis. Rules do not apply , in their way of thinking. That is shy the computer trail stuff. She regualy posts on her Facebook page about beer bongs, keggers,etc. I detqtch and support prosocial stuff like getting through high school. The aggresivley braking stuff is part of th bipoalr rages. We have been through smashed laptops, holes in wall, etc. etc. My saftey comes sfirst. If she is raging (seldom now), I will not engage but protect myself number one. Before I had support, she was beating me up. I am so glad we got diagnosis and medication from adolscent/child p-doctor. Yes, we did neeurospych too but it just substantiated the diagnosis. Take care of you.
