[QUOTE="pinevalley, post: 144892, member: 3710"] Welcome to this board. You will find many people here who understand just what you are going through. I have a teen-ager who is often out of control, so I know just how hard it is to parent a difficult child. One method that works for my husband and I is that we determine one or two things that mean the most to our difficult child, and then we take these priviledges away if he is out of control. We have refused to drive him anywhere he wants to go as one of his punishments, and we don't let him get a ride with his friends either. Since our son can't drive yet, he is totally dependent on us for rides everywhere. I would also be very careful about calling the police on your difficult child, unless you know how they handle teens. We called the police on our son, and they told us that once they came to our house they had to handcuff our son and arrest him. You may be forced to call the police in order to keep your difficult child in your house, but it is a good idea to find out what the police will do before you have to call them. Good luck, and best wishes, [/QUOTE]
