[QUOTE="compassion, post: 216546, member: 6393"] Yesterday I was out shopping with difficult child, 15. She is day 10 no drugs or alcohol (as far as I know) and hasn't run away or stolen since then. She was pretty rough around the edges. Of course grocery shopping the day before T-Day is very stressful anyway. I am relaly on edge. Sad, greiving-first holidy since it has been this way. It is so hard for her to do anything she does not want to do. I insisted she help me with shopping. I did let her drive some. She is like buy me this , buy me that and I got her a few things. When I lost it though was when we were checking out at the last strore and I asked her to swipe the card for me. She nodded her head no. I exploded as she has stolen thousands from us (crdeit card)and when I asked her to help it was that attitude of I can do whatevetr I want. She is also not obeying the limit about not contacting inappropriate people (drug users/alcholhol users) and too old for her. I just needed to share this. Today we are taking her to a meeting at the local AA club and there is a T-Day dinner. I have been coolkng all day at home. I am going to have her help and exercise. Thanks for being here. Sallie-warrior mom, 55 Cory, 18 ADHD never medicated doing great Cara, difficult child 15 Bipolar, conduct disorder, substance abuser, Abilify 15; Lactimal 75 Bill, difficult child 33 no contact since summer, 2006 Greg-60 husband, taking more of a role [/QUOTE]
