[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 736143, member: 4152"] Welcome. Yes, see if you can change your name. Runaway Bunny or a moderator can do this. You’ve gotten great ideas already. This won’t be easy. You and your wife might actually need some therapy sessions for yourselves for Support. Some ideas...many have already been said: 1. Get her a counselor/therapist for her. Preferably one good with teens. 2. Drug test her. 3. Find out her interests and encourage them. Music? Art? Get her lessons. See what they have at school. Clubs? Drama Club? 4. Set up house rules. If she breaks the rules, there should be logical consequences. The cell phone is a very powerful tool and you can take it away for a week as a sample punishment. 5. At some point...maybe not right away, but you need to be aware if she might engage in sex. If so, you might consider birth control and even the Gardisal shot. 6. Is she very close to any family members? Aunt? Grandmother? If appropriate, without telling them all the details, see if you can get them to speak with her. [/QUOTE]
