[QUOTE="KatieMae, post: 391944"] Have any of you had to teen-proof your home? With threats of suicide and running away, we are having to do this and I'd love some ideas if you have them! So far we have purchased a large toolbox for knives, knitting needles etc. and a small toolbox for medications and our phones. We are putting window alarms on all the windows and doors and have a motion sensor for downstairs while we sleep. We are changing the lock on our bedroom door and moving all that we can into our room (computers, game systems etc.) The teens room will have a bed(futon), pillow, pillow case and comforter... due to her threats of suicide I've decided not to allow her to have a sheet. I'll also be taking down her sheer curtain panels for the same reason. She will be allowed to have 5 items of makeup, which must stay in a makeup bag in clear sight at all times. (She's been hiding needles in her makeup at the shelter she is at right now) You guys have any other ideas? [/QUOTE]
