[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 194490, member: 1550"] Although teens do get emotional about breakups (I've lived through plenty with mine) and may even cry, taking it out on parents, throwing, breaking things and threatening suicide is definitely over-the-top. My ex-druggie pulled a knife on herself and went ballistic when a boy broke up with her--that was not normal. She didn't really mean to kill herself, but the drama and the implication and her hysteria was frightening. The other kids moped, cried, talked to me, cried some more and got over it. I don't believe that this is normal, except for a difficult child, and a difficult child has other stuff going on so they can't handle the regular pressures of life. They need help so that they can. Life isn't easy. They need to get help so that they can hold together during the bad times. Still think it's over-the-top for ADHD. Could be wrong. [/QUOTE]
