Quote From: kjfakeI do not know what kind of mom i am . i did the hands off mom and as a result i got a teen who is completely out of control. she had her school report me to children and youth. that i am not mad about they are only doing their job. but my daughter is drinking, she is sexually active, may be doing drugs. i have had to have the police out to our house 2 days ago because she has threatened me with harm. chidren and youth, the police, crisis intervention all know what is going on you think someone would help to get her into a boot camp or residentual treatment place ? NO no one has helped me at all now i got to deal with being on the verge of a breakdown myself am so afraid to sleep at night. someone please help
unfortunately there is not much help for your case, been there, the best you can do is get up and make the best out of each day and stand up for yourself , to dept of state and your child, anger rules this world and you cant let it rule you. dont feel it s all your fault either, at some point your child has to take responsibility for her own actions!!! if you break down , she will not have anyone to fall back on when her world falls apart! Dont forget who you are and your strenghts and your abilities. find a support system if you can , let the state know you are strong and willing to work with them , or against them if you have to. depending on your state there are options , every kind of mom has problems at some point and sometimes certain children just act like jerks no matter how good you are. If you have something going on with you personally that you need to fix start there, if she follows suit good for her if not , you will be better for working on you! Sounds kinda selfish but the trueth is most daughters act out because of lack of respect for thier mothers. The point is, you feel weak and scared and you need to feel strong and secure. Work on that. You will be happy you did.
