[QUOTE="realangel, post: 38562, member: 3193"] HI Emily and welcome When you manage to get a response from social services (trust me they can be a bind to get to help from) maybe suggest to them about your daughter seeing CAMHS? (children and adolescent mental health services). I did that this time round and difficult child is again being assessed for ADHD etc. Also, as Heather suggested, every time she becomes violent towards you call the police... but FOLLOW IT THROUGH! This will give her the message that her behavior is not acceptable and you will not stand for it any more. I wish I had done all this when my difficult child was 13.. he is now 16 and it took me all that time to realize what he was doing was actually domestic abuse. He is now out of the home in a foster placement, which wasn't what i was after, but i now know that its the best place for him and unfortunately the ONLY way to get social services to help us.... but thats because of his age (so they told me). They may try and tell you because of her age they cant help, they may assess you and your daughter and put plans in place.... make sure they stick to them! Last year we had social services 'help' us... for all of 3 weeks!! Because he presented as a good kid to them they felt i was being overly paranoid and closed our case. Keep on to them and take to BS from them.. they CAN and MUST help you! Tell them your daughter is a child in need (because she is.. she is in need of help) every child has the right to help and stability... and every parent/guardian has the right to feel safe in their own home. I wish you luck. [/QUOTE]
