[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 414302, member: 1233"] Take the laptop away and lock it up when she gets home. At the very least get a cable for it and lock it to something she cannot break. I would remove it and her phone completely. with no phone the cops would have done something. Whomever she is with will have a phone so she can still call you if she needs to - just cannot use it as an exuse - "you could just call me, no need for me to come home because you could call me, etc...". I wouldn't make a big deal, just take it away when she is asleep and not say anything unless/until she asks you where it is. If she has a fit, walk away unless she is hurting someone. IF she damages something, take her favorite outfits away and sell them at a teen used clothing place until you have the $$ to make up for whatever the repairs cosst. Heck, sell the phone and laptop too if it comes to her damaging property. Sorry it has come to this. I had a feeling she was playing along for a while. It is pretty common. [/QUOTE]
