Thanks Nic........

It is still no bed of roses, to say the least, but things are gradually improving, although it is a lot of continial hard work for my GF, who is making herself sick with the stress of it.

Amy was suspended from school, and she was not allowed any contact with friends & her mobile was taken off her for the duration of the suspension, and this seemed to make her at least take some notice of the issues and that there WERE boundries. (Funnily enough, she was horrified when she got her mobile back and there were no messages for her from boys or girls) so I think she realised that being suspended wasn't considered "cool" by her friends, in fact it seemed to ostracise (sp?) her, which made her look quite hard at her own behaviour.

They are still not out of the woods yet though.

Amy has fallen out with me big time actually, becasue I told her that she wasn't going to be invited to our wedding as she wasn't welcome if she was to continue to upset my GF, so she is ignoring me at the moment and told my GF that "Lucy is so hard-hearted"! LOL! But apparently my GF says she "respects" me, so even if she just tones her behaviour down for a while to give my GF a bit of a rest from the stress, that is great by me!
