[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 430874, member: 1550"] Hi there. So been there with a terrible teen. She took drugs. Is there any chance this is part of daughter's problem? If so, be careful of ADHD medication. My daughter used to crush stimulants in a pillcrusher and snort it (sometimes with other drugs). It's common practice and I am not a big stimulant fan if the child is a difficult child who may abuse drugs. Adderrall is the most coveted, but they will use all of those medications and even steal scripts from their brothers and sisters. My daughter is clean now and has told me all about her drug days...by the way, that was her problem...we had a bunch of diagnosis., but it turned out the extreme defiance and mood swings were the drugs. She is fine now. Was your daughter always this way? If shes commits a crime, you can turn her in and get the police involved. My daughter had t his and her record has been cleaned off now and is doing well. I mention the police because they can do something, even if you can't. Perhaps you can get her into a Residential Treatment Center (RTC) setting so that she can't run the streets. As for school, she can always get her GED later...I'd focus on what may be going on, what you can do about it (and, yes, I know it's not much) and making it until her 18th birthday in which you can make her leave if she won't shape up or get treatment or, if this is a factor, get into a drug rehab program. Can you give us a bit more history of her early years to now and her family situation? Any trauma? Sexual abuse? Divorce in the famly? Psychiatric problems or substance abuse on either side of the family tree? Does she have friends? Welcome to the board, but so sorry you have to be here. [/QUOTE]
