Me, too Albie, well I did it, but gave far too many chances to come back. The old revolving door.... Well, at least we can offer up the lesson from that experience to others in the same predicament.
How wise retrospect is........
Well, Looking, 14 is awfully young, who knows if it would have been better, worse or the same? What regrets may you have had if you did leave her there? Shoulda, woulda, coulda.
Okay, for the record.....I sent you the link not to think of what your daughter may or may not have, just to see what the effects on us as parents are and look at some tools you may use to get through the fog.
Sorry for any misunderstanding on that.... Okay that being said, your daughter sounds very clever and the psychologist, well they are people and it is a business. Sheesh $175 every two weeks? Aaarrgh. You have done the best you could, taken her to see someone and she was able to fool the Dr. into thinking she was okay. The "her" you have seen could have mental issues, or drug use issues, who knows? Sounds like she has been using for awhile, had issues from a young child, but you took her to the Dr. then and nothing came of it. Looking, we are not magicians.....we are moms........
