[QUOTE="Roxona, post: 690193, member: 19076"] I think a lot of this is normal teen stuff. In a way, she sounds a lot like J. He was always bringing home strays (friends who were having a hard time at home or were runaways) for me to take care of. I eventually had to tell him he could no longer bring anyone home, and that this hostel was closed! J has a good heart and it seems to me like he feels like he needs to solve other people's problems. I think it makes him feel better about himself. He has very little self esteem. Maybe this is the same for your daughter? [/QUOTE]
