[QUOTE="lemonroe, post: 400600, member: 10940"] Hi, all: Mom of 17yo daughter (turns 18 in early Sept). Laundry list of issues include: - childhood sexual abuse by babysitter's husband (before age 6; therapy) - poor choice of friends (drug-dealing 21yo boyfriend; yay!) - rejection by bio father at age 14 (he left when she was 3 mos. old; my husband adopted her at age 2) - depression (on Zoloft for 1 month) - therapy since age 14 - straight As until she began skipping school; now failing all but 2 classes (grade 11) - attends church/youth group 2x/week - stolen from us (wedding set, cameras, watches, alcohol) to give to boyfriend/friends for drugs - rehab for 1 week (voluntary) after she stole my car/$100 from my bank acct at the end of Sept. - Baker Acted after stealing neighbor's car & credit card right before Christmas (neighbor did not press charges, although we asked her to) - got upset because she couldn't go to a party (grounded from car-stealing), threw a fit and then attacked my husband (court date today after a night in juvvie) We don't feel comfortable having her in the house after this. Usually, she's fairly compliant and follows rules (outside of sneaking out). She is usually pleasant in the house outside of a little bit of attitude regarding chores or discussing school. Last night before she attacked my husband, she yelled something about "burning the house down." We live in Florida and are considering a specific treatment center if we can get her in. Thanks so much, - L [/QUOTE]
