[QUOTE="Fran, post: 307491, member: 3"] My thoughts are along with smallworld. If at all possible, get her out of her comfortable environment. Have her attend a program that is structured and advocates self responsibility. We sent our difficult child to emotional grownth boarding school for 2 yrs. It was out of state so no way to come back to his home to resume former behavior. I really believe that taking a teen out of their comfortable environment where they know people who will enable them and how to get around mom and dad will make them less arrogant and cocky. These programs make one face their behavior and own it. This isn't a cure but a way for her to find the right path and for families to heal from all the damage difficult child's do to them. I don't know if you can get help with finding a program or if you could afford it but it's a good thing to use any college money savings since the path she is on, college probably won't happen. Programs are not a cure but a tool. Just like college is not a guarantee to job success but a tool. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
