[QUOTE="pepperidge, post: 403034, member: 2322"] Jena Ithink you are in a situation somewhat like what we found ourselves in with oldest anxious son who had major school refusual. Principal and counselor tried to implement a plan whereby they would deprive him of everything if he didn't do his work. Well after a day or so he was so depressed and overwhelmed he was talking about there being no reason for living. We threw out that plan. Building positive relationships with staff, problem solving about what makes her anxious etc probably will get your farther than total line in the sand kind of warfare. That said there may be a few non negotiables--eating, sleep for mom whatever. It is a fine balance. Your daughter is ill and she is not doing all these things totally volitionally. That said she will keep on being dependent unless you force her to take baby steps forward. Easy to say, hard to do. Hang in there. [/QUOTE]
