[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 752152, member: 4152"] Welcome. There is an interesting book called “Yes, your teen is crazy,” that might be at least a little helpful. But I do fear there is more going on here than typical teen acting out. I would have her return the phone to the parent. Is she in weekly therapy? I would definitely consider this. Does she have any talents or healthy interests you can explore? Sports, drawing, etc. Getting her involved with something healthy might help to keep her away from trouble. Set boundaries in your household as it sounds like you are likely in for a tough ride. I would remove a privlege for stealing from you for a period of time. But tell her (and mean it) if she ever steals from you again you will call the police (and do so immediately). Consider therapy for yourself too as this stuff is very hard. PS Perhaps Runnaway Bunny or a moderator can move this to General. This Forum is for adult “kids” over 18. [/QUOTE]
