[QUOTE="nvts, post: 99470, member: 3814"] Hi! I don't have kids your age, so I'm going to look at things a little differently. Her Dad is a substance abuser (I question whether or not he's totally clean if he shuts off his phone and disappears for a few days when he's supposed to have the kids)who has left you and your wife high and dry to the tune of $20,000. You on the other hand, sound like a really nice, intelligent man who has EVERYONE'S best interest at heart. She's 13 - difficult child or not, she's possessed. Linda Blair had NOTHING on a difficult child teen! You guys are talking about moving clear across the country and leaving her to live with this clown because she's poisoning the rest of the relationships in the house. My vote (sorry BBK!! [img]:smile:[/img] ) is to take her with, but have a contingency plan. If she starts really getting out of control, BEFORE you move, make sure that there is an Residential Treatment Facility (RTF) or something available should the problems escalate. You do not want her showing up on the doorstep pregnant, with an STD or something far worse and to top it all off, mad at you for leaving her behind. I'm just thinking that she'll have a better chance at making it in this life if you guys are there for her. Is she taking any medications? ODD rarely stands alone, have you had a full neuropsychologist done on her? My mom taught us to keep our friends close, our enemies closer, and NEVER LET A TEEN OUT OF YOUR SIGHT! She had 6 of us...enough said! [img]:smile:[/img] Beth [/QUOTE]
