[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 230228, member: 3626"] Shawna, I saw one thing that you said that bothers me. While some of us have gone through a lot of what you have, many of us haven't. Regardless, you have to do what is right for you. If everyone here told you to not go yet your heart and mind said go, then you should go. We don't live in your shoes and really don't have all the facts. When my daughter disappeared and I finally found out where she was, I was told to not go get her. This was wrong for me. I did get my daughter. She came home and was a much different person. Not perfect, not even close, but the violence stopped entirely, so did the temper tantrums. She'll still take what is mine, but so will most kids. She'll still argue something into the ground, dig it up, bury it again and then dig it up. But for me, I was right in going to get her. So, take what you need from our advice and suggestions but, in the long run, do what you feel is best for you and your child. You still love her and she's going to need to know that you love her regardless of her choices. As I tell my daughter, I may hate your choices and decisions but I'll always love you. They are separate. I hope the court understands that she needs help far more than she needs punishment and a treatment plan is found and implemented. HUGS! [/QUOTE]
