Stop making this all about you! It's not about you, it's about your daughter! Are you so self-centered that you can't see that?

Of course you are, or you wouldn't be posting the way you are. Get over yourself, lady.

I will make these types of comparisons between my children!I have one child who hits and bullies and curses everyone (by the way she has NEVER heard any of us cuss in her life)
My other 2 children do not try to hit others thereaten death and intimidate all of us over something as small as phone use! She is headed for the real world (she is 17) where the court and her parents will not cotle her. It is unconstitutional to force a citizen to do something against their will when there was no court order with our name on it and we did not commit a crime. I did not abuse HER! SHE ABUSED ME!!!!! she hit me!!!!!!!!!!!and now I am on trial! I think not. none of this is constitutional. none of it
Lady...YOU need help! Your daughter is imploding and all you can harp about is the inconvenience of going to therapy. Sweet.

All I can say is that your 17yo didn't get to this stage overnight. You helped her get there, somehow. So why you wouldn't want to know how - or how to prevent repeating the pattern with the others - boggles the mind.

Hi,
I am researching information for a paper due in my college class and came across your post. I felt like I needed to respond. I understand what you are going through. I have been there. Although my daughter did not hit me, we went through some very tumultuous times with her in the home. I started to see that we were not going to get the help that we needed. I talked to a hospital that caters to children who have many different psychological disorders and debated for a while whether or not to admit my daughter. When I finally did, I found that it was the best decision I could have made for her. Not only did things improve at home when she came home, but her whole attitude and demeanor improved. Sometimes it is just a matter of the child having someone to talk to about the issues they are dealing with. The hospital evaluated my daughter and we learned that she was manic depressive and anorexic. This may be your daughter reaching out for help and sometimes as a parent the only thing we can do is find that help from an outside source. I wish you the best of luck and pray that things work out for you and your daughter.
My advice would be to seek out a local hospital that caters to people who are struggling with psychological issues and have her admitted. You will still be required to have family counseling sessions while she is there, but at least it will be in a more controlled environment. She will be angry with you at first, but when she has gone through some of the counseling and learns to control her anger, she and you will be thankful.
The OP posted four years ago. I rather doubt they'll be back.
