[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 488239, member: 6546"] In some sense, a 15 year old gets to decide whether they want a relationship with you (or not) anyway - this therapist just made it 'official' by saying it out loud... but clearly - the child wants the BENEFITS of a relationship (ie gifts and priviledges)....just not the responsibility (respect, reciprocity). Sounds like HP was honest when she said she doesn't know what she wants. So maybe that's the starting point? As far as handling the ferret issue? I think you did great! Good for you! [/QUOTE]
