[QUOTE="klmno, post: 368860, member: 3699"] DF, I had this problem with my son and it was critical with him because he has spent all his teen years so far on probation or parole or locked up. You might be aware, it has cost me my career. If I had it to do over again, I would have sought out and pushed for him to be accepted into one of the "at-risk" programs in our community. I didn't know they existed at first, then thought this would be worse for difficult child due to the "kind of kids" he'd be around. But if your difficult child is anything like mine, expecting them to maintain stability in normal programs while I work peacefully just isn't going to happen. The only other thing I can think of is a Y program if you can get her interested in one. Volunteering is a great idea- but my son would either have to come up with the idea or there would be potential for difficult child behavior and it ending real soon. [/QUOTE]
