[QUOTE="LucyB, post: 223635, member: 3472"] Jennifer, I have no advice for you, but I wanted to let you know that I understand since we went through something very similar with our daughter. I was also told by many people, including the psychiatric we took her to, that her behavior was normal or typical teen. I think to a certain extent it can be considered typical, but at some point it becomes too extreme and crosses the line. I guess we all draw that line in different places, but in my opinion my daughter crossed the line. Like your daughter, mine went through a drastic change around 7th grade. I've always wondered if anything triggered it. I thought about boarding school and wilderness programs too, but didn't do it. I don't know whether I made the right decision or not. My daughter is almost 19 and is in college, but her lack of interest in academics definitely limited her possibilities. I don't have her first semester grades yet, but her midterms weren't very good. She still manipulates, lies, and thinks she is entitled to everything. [/QUOTE]
