[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 213568, member: 2211"] [FONT=Century Gothic][SIZE=3][COLOR=purple]I feel really stupid because when reading your story all I could think of were the many MANY times that my difficult child did what yours did and worse...and I never called the police. I think I was too horrified to 'waste their time'...but now I wonder if I would have been able to nip a bad attitude in the bud by ending her theatrics at an earlier age. Yeesh - she climbed out her bedroom window in the middle of a snow storm wearing only a t-shirt and jeans and socks. Another time she ran away during a horrible treacherous nor'easter, with already a foot of snow on the ground and hitchhiked to her friend's house. She was only 16. Screamed, threw things and hollered at H so many times. I wish now that I had had the balls to call the cops then. NOW I would, but back then, I was afraid to.
