[QUOTE="Californiablonde, post: 596592, member: 2196"] Her father is pretty much useless. His response to difficult child not going to school is to call her a loser who will never be succesful in life. When she visited his house last weekend his punishment to her for not going to school was to not let her have any samples when they went to the grocery store. That's it. And I have gone to call the police on her before and she grabs the phone out of my hand. Last time this happened my boyfriend was there. She was blocking the doorway so I couldn't leave the house to go to work. She grabbed my cell phone so I told my boyfriend to call the police. As soon as he picked up his phone she finally moved out of the doorway so I could leave. Today was better. At first she refused to get out of bed due to being tired but I called my mom for help. She promised her to take her to get frozen yogurt after school if she would get up so difficult child did. She cried and complained the whole time but she finally made it to the car. Tomorrow difficult child has her social skills group which she loves and she met a friend there. Plus she has easy classes on Friday. So I don't think it is going to be a problem for her tomorrow, but I am worried about the rest of next week and thereafter. All she has is three weeks and she is done for the year. I am going to ask the school psychiatric to talk to her about finishing the rest of the year. For some reason whatever he says to her totally motivates her. At least for awhile. I am hoping he can talk some sense in her today and get her through at least the rest of this year okay. So far her teachers have been really cooperative in letting her make up the work after school.
