[QUOTE="DLeecious, post: 419382, member: 11650"] I am so relieved to find this.[I] I have a 12 yr girl who is consistantly on the honnor roll but constantly degrades me corrects me , lies and steals constantly and no matter what I try will not do chores. truely makes my house a pig sty when she gets up in the middle of the night. she is also hypersexual and wants to dress inapropriatly and wear makeup I am not physically able too keep up with her destruction and mentaly worn to a frazzle. She has been in therapy and on medications for over 4 yrs. Treatment options are a joke where I live. The therapist tells me that her behaviors are due to the inconsistancy of my parenting. I myself feel at the end of my rope I am hurt by the things she says and does even though I know she cant help it. I am a single mom and this is my 5th child and the only one left at home I have no support system (her father has been declared an unfit parent and has minimal contact with her) or family and dont see this changing. Until finding info on my childs diagnosis I just felt like I was a horrible parent for not being able to get my girl to cooperate.I have every kind of sticker chart reward system etc. Do any of you have suggestions for say communicating with the therapist? I feel she doesnt have a clue about my childs needs or diagnosis. Or how about dealing with her hostility towards me(she is a wonderful ,funny ,bright child at heart)developing a thick skin etc. Thank you for letting me vent incoherantly[/I] [/QUOTE]
