[QUOTE="house of cards, post: 152326, member: 2005"] So sorry for all the drama. You know the expression "You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink", I think it applies here. You have done your best but it is complicated by her relationship with her birthmom. It would mean alot if she could get her GED and I'm sure you would encourage that but you aren't just fighting difficult child, you are fighting her birthmom as well and I'm not sure you can win. All you can do is try to keep some line of communicatiuon open and let her know you care and are willing to help her get ahead. It is very sad that her birthmom doesn't want a better future for her.
