Oh Gargey some of your ideas are fantastic, but most have been tried & have backfired. She's impossible.
My parents are no help, they seem to think she belongs to them & will just treat her like garbage in the process, making it all worse.
Her father is currently in rehab, he's never been a help anyway.
It is the HSLO I have to see next week, I have no idea about them either, so I am looking forward to see what they have to offer.
She hates all her teachers & all her classes, so working through to find a trigger is a little off key, although I seriously don't beleive she hates them all, it's just her "really good excuse".

I asked the school about school suspend, nothing has been done yet, I think they school is being quite slack in this respect.
Being in a small community, the careers guide is reluctant to offer her any work experience, as she is so unreliable. It has been suggested but the principal said no.

Bec, the school did threaten having me sit in on classes, but I would take it too far I think & I'd follow her around all day lol, would be impossible cos of the little two, but I would like to.
She doesn't want to spend any time with me, I've tried, I"ve taken her out to lunch, she ordered a big lunch & didn't want it when it arrived. I went & got her nails done, & over the course of 3 days, she picked them all off. I just think she has it in for me, cos of all the silly things she does, I get up her for, hence the names she calls me. But I can not sit back & let her ruin her life.

BG, we have worked with the cops, but they get soooo frustrated with her I DONT CARE attitdude, it makes it really difficult, & there really is nothing out here like that to take her too, living out i the sticks does have it's advantages, but we seems to miss out on a lot as well. I like it, when the kids are home, there is nowhere to go, it's not like they are gonna walk 45k's into town to run amok lol.


Atleast she is having a "i'm a nice girl" day today, I don't think I could handle the attitude.

Thank you so much for all your advise ladies, I really appreciate it.

LULU, I just read your post about your DD OMG, why do they put us through this?? I was thinking it was because I spend alot of time with the little 2 as well, but even before they came along Amy wasn't an only child,I've just hit a brickwall with her. Must go find a jack hammer, cos it cant go on for much longer.
