[quote=Anonymous]My teenager is awful. Just awful. She has taken to having a wretched attitude with me and her father. I get it I get it -- you're meanest to the ones you love and trust. Problem is I find it hard to fight back getting upset. And when she's really pushing my buttons I find myself being mean to her. I know it's wrong but her disrespect, lying, today's realization that she ran up a $101 lunch food bill with her pin even though we send lunch every day because she didn't like what we packed -- and we don't have the $101 to pay it -- I am done. Can you please help me with a mantra or something to help me not lash out? We are seeing a therapist together and separately and are all on SSRI meds. But I am seriously wondering if she would be better off at boarding school because it's growing to a place where I just don't even want to be around her anymore. I am just that fed up with her. It's not fair to her and maybe the separation would be what's best. [/quote]
