[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 334266, member: 1550"] I have raised five kids. My youngest is thirteen. in my opinion this is way out of the normal. I don't think your parenting is the problem, however I would have her evaluated by a neuropsychologist. I have a few questions that can help us help you. 1/Has ANYONE evaluated her? 2/Are there any psychiatric problems or substance abuse on either side of her genetic family tree. 3/How was her early development? Does she make and keep good eye contact with strangers? Her same age peers? Does she interact with her peers in appropriate ways? Does she have any obsessions? Any odd or quirky behaviors? Is she sensitive to loud noises, certain textures, crowded places? Is she able to transition smoothly from one activity to another? It is common for kids with disorders to act ok around strangers, but take it all out on us. Kids feel safest around those they know love them. in my opinion you need to get her completely evaluated. As for school, I don't think homeschooling is causing this, but you do need to find out what's going on and, since she is not in school, find out how to do interventions at home. I wouldn't let it go. Early intervention is the key to all kids who are wired differently and she seems to be. Have you ever heard of Asperger's Syndrome? She has some big red flags for that one. Their level of frustration can hit the roof until somebody understands them and they get serious help for their social inadequacies.
