[QUOTE="sammi, post: 707273, member: 21373"] No traumatic events that I can remember. Our family is very close and she has had love and support from both myself and husband, her maternal grandparents live next door and my brother and sister work at the family business and have always been close. Because of all of the trouble she has been in there are lots of teams of people involved with her, we took her to be mentally assessed at 13 but she is very manipulative and just told them what they wanted to hear, her social worker and us think she needs assessing again but she is refusing to go. She won't get in the car to go to appointments, school, anywhere she doesn't want to go. And as we are not allowed to physically make her get in the car I'm lost as to how to get her to go. I have begged and pleaded, screamed and shouted, even offered bribes but nothing works! She has it in her head as soon as she is 16 her and her boyfriend can move out and everything will be perfect then. Even though she will have no education, no money and no job! We have tried explaining how expensive etc but nothing at all gets through to her. The police were gobsmacked at how disrespectful and completely unbothered she was when they brought her home! She never cries or shows any emotion at all :( if she had her way she would be taken in to care, that's what she wants as she thinks she will be able to do what she wants! I honestly don't know what I can say to her that I haven't said a thousand times before :'( I have 2 younger daughters (10&8) and she is vile to them and they are very glad she is staying away from home. I really don't know what to do? [/QUOTE]
