[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 557673, member: 1514"] welcome to the board. Sorry you showed up late at night and most folks were sleeping. Honestly I would press charges for the dog. She is still young enough that the felony will most likely come off her record when she gets to be an adult if she manages to get help now and turns things around. And yes she definitely needs help now. I cant see in home help helping you at this point if I am understanding that you have other children in the home that are at her mercy. I would also rehome the dog at this point. Maybe you have a friend or relative who could take it on until your daughter is placed somewhere? I do think she is showing the classic signs of conduct disorder but lots of people wont agree with me. I think you do need to get her into a placement that will teach her she has to follow the same rules as everyone else. So many of our kids seem to think they are special and the rules dont apply to them. They have a rude awakening when they turn 18. Better we prepare them very young. I cant tell you what to do but this is what I would do. [/QUOTE]
