[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 589543, member: 11791"] (my turn - MWM got here first...!) Ditto. There are three common points where problems seem to explode - when they start school, somewhere in the middle years (5/6/7), and HS. Because... the whole environment and expectations change dramatically. Sometimes, they sneak by for an extra couple of years because they get exceptional teachers, but that isn't enough. You DO need to know WHY she is this way. If she's always been difficult - has she ever had a comprehensive evaluation? If she was more 'typical', then... things like drugs might be in the picture. HOW you parent needs to be driven by the problem, not by the symptoms. Until we got accurate, concrete dxes... we didn't have much to go on. [/QUOTE]
