[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 124890, member: 4040"] Thank you for your responses. She will be 17 in August, has been on medications since 4th grade (currently Adderall XR and Risperdal), and was always high energy, crawling at 4 months, standing at 5 months, walking at 8 months. She has been evaluated, diagnosis ADHD/ODD. Her acting out is constant. She wants to do only what she wants to do, takes no responsibility for anything she does, and blames the universe for her difficulties. She has punched holes in her bedroom walls, ripped her bedroom door off the hinges and threw it at me, broke a saucepan and my kitchen counter, kicks furniture, throws things, etc. I believe in logical consequences, so she has no bedroom door, the holes aren't fixed, and if you plugged the toilet, you need to unplug it. She has stated (at the top of her voice and often) how much she hates me and wants out of this house, but she really has nowhere to go. However, my mother, in an attempt to reassure her I think, has said that if anything happened to me, that Miss KT could live with her. So now I wonder. And yes, we locked everything up. Trouble is, I'm never sure how much of her behavior she can help, but doesn't choose to. [/QUOTE]
