[QUOTE="busywend, post: 54219, member: 391"] It is more about holding the past against her. She used to lie, cheat and steal. Talk inappropriately on the computer. Talk inappropriately on text messaging. Some of what she was doing at 12 is much more age appropriate now. I do not think she is talking like she used to, but am I to really expect my 16 year old not to discuss sexual things with a boy? I think it is normal. There are kids at her school that are pregnant - I would be a fool to think she would not be discussing it, thinking about it, etc. However, I am pleased to hear she wishes to remain celebate for now. At 12 I was devastated to think she even knew some of these things. Now, it seems like she and her friends would mostly know these topics. So, it is not about if what Dex is doing works - there is not much that does with difficult child. We have yet to find anything. But, it seems like the topics at 12 should be revisited with a different light. [/QUOTE]
