[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 203934, member: 1233"] Bran, She has been doing this for a long time. At least since before you came here in June. It is time to 1. Change the curfew to 10pm or whatever time you and husband go to bed. 2. Get the dang PINS petition filed. 3. Get the cops involved. You simply MUST get tough on this - NOT emotional yelling and screaming, just calm, here is how it is, this is what I will do, period. Do NOT extend curfew for ANY reason. Call the cops every single time she is violent at home, misses curfew, disappears (can't remember if she has done this), is drunk or high, you find alcohol or drugs on her. You have a 7 year old son. How great an example are you setting when you let her interrupt his sleep, turn his home into a war zone, damage his home, etc.... She is setting him up for major anxiety and PTSD problems, as well as showing him that HE can treat you like this also. I know whereof I speak - Wiz made Jessie's life a living hades, adn until I hospitalized him I, yes I, was not doing a great job of parenting ehr or thank you. You simply MUST get the legal system involved. While it seems mean, it may save her life, your or your husband's life, or your SON'S life. Tomorrow, while she is gone, go through EVERYTHING in HER room AND in your son's room. It is CLASSIC to hide stuff in the "good" kid's room so the parents won't find it. The difficult child scares the good kid so he won't tell. Then put locks on your son's door, so he can lock her out, on your door, and on ANY door that you can to keep her in her room or the living room and kitchen, period. Go and get a personal alarm for your son. That way if he is in danger by her or her friends he can sound the alarm and you can KNOW that he needs help. been there done that there too. I am sorry if this sounds harsh. It isn't meant to be, just to state the facts as baldly as possible. You have a lot to do. It won't be fun. But you MUST do it, because otherwise you will have to resign yourself to a lot more of this. (((gentle hugs))) [/QUOTE]
