[QUOTE="accmama, post: 608318"] Midwestmom- Yes, she has a history of drug use and we do suspect that she may have been abused as a very young girl. Not only that, when she was 12 her bio father told her he didn't want to see her anymore. She's not jealous of her siblings. Her problems started when she was a toddler. She has always been extremely defiant and has been to numerous therapists, psychiatrists, programs. She has been hospitalized 4 or 5 times, and has been in rehab. It's been a long hard road. I will say that I am able to detach sometimes, but only when I know she has a roof over her head. The hardest part about this is that she is so immature, she needs mothering. She needs someone to take care of her because she is emotionally more like a 13 year old (in my opinion), but she is legally able to do whatever she wants. I would feel better about her "staying with a friend" or even sleeping in her car if she had half a brain in her head. But if she did, I guess she wouldn't be in this situation to begin with. So, not only do I have a child out there on the streets, I have a ridiculously impulsive, self destructive person on the street. [/QUOTE]
