Having mega problems with DD to the point where I dont recognise her anymore and at this moment in time feel like dumping her on her sperm donors doorstep.
Ive had escalating bad behavior from her for about 18 months now, we've tried treatment, reward and punishment but nothing gets through. Last night it escalated and she stormed out and has ended up at my mates 15 miles away, she's best mates with my mates teenage DD.
After discussion today the top and bottom of it is basically if we're not nice to her then she isnt coming home. I wont be held to ransom and I am trying to keep calm for her brothers sake.
She has developed this utterly selfish streak, all me me me. She even sulked when we bought LO his ESSENTIALS. She sulked when we had a private scan because she didnt get one. Besides the fact I was a teenager on social at the time they didnt bloody exist then!!!
She wants for nothing, she has in her room a PC, MP3 player, mobile, TV, freeview, dvd player, more make up and the good stuff too than I have, more jewellery than I have and so many clothes her wardrobes are bursting. We try to get her to spend time with us as a family she doesnt want to know and would rather hang round the streets with people she only met in february when we moved here.
When we've spoken to her she just doesnt get it and thinks she has done no wrong. Some of my friends say "typical teenager" well I know dozens of teenagers none of which behave that way or push the boundaries never mind step right over them like she does.
Any advice? Jesus I thought I was bad as a teenager but I wouldnt dare do some of the things she doesnt even think twice about
If one of my mates kids behaved like she does I'd tell them they'd raised a brat!
