[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 650602, member: 1157"] Welcome, NY Mom. Glad you’re here. If you look through the threads on this Parents Emeritus board, you’ll see many stories similar to your own – I hope that brings you some small comfort. You’re definitely not alone! I hope you can get to the bottom of the IRS issue and get your account unfrozen quickly. You don’t mention how your daughter was able to use your account – did you give her permission to access it (even previously), or did she steal your information and do it without your permission? If it’s the latter, it’s a pretty serious issue. As MWM mentions, you may want to think about pressing charges – or at the very least contact your bank and deny the pending charges for the cell phone. If you didn’t authorize those charges, you have every right to ask that they reverse them/cancel the pending transaction. As an aside, if she really wants a cell phone, she can get one of those cheap track phones at plenty of places – convenience stores, drug stores, etc. She doesn’t even need to involve you, that’s on her. I understand, too, how these kids can drive you crazy yourself – to the point where you become out of control and fight back. Anti-depressants are a good start, I’m of the belief that taking medication alone is not much use if you’re not also getting counseling to address the underlying issues. I hope you have someone you can talk to. I do think it’s time to think about getting your daughter out of the house. Check the local laws to see if you can legally evict her. At the very least, I’d think about putting down a hard line when it comes to the physical violence – if she hits you, throws things at you, or damages your property, call 911. At the top of this board is a thread called “Article on Detachment” – I would definitely take some time to read through that. Detachment is something we’ve all had to learn to practice when it comes to dealing with our difficult kids. We have to take care of ourselves first and foremost, and not let them control our lives. Keep us posted! [/QUOTE]
