[quote=Anonymous]It does sound very hard. I’d focus on ignoring this kind of thing as much as you can, because it’s not really about the paint color. It’s about having a hard life and coming to terms with it all. Can you try to get her engaged in some activities that will fill the emptiness inside? Therapeutic horseback riding? Helping others somehow? I would try to get her to go to an outdoor residential therapeutic camp this summer, so she can step away from her current life and regroup. Outward Bound is terrific for teens. She’s doing the best she can. If you have to bribe her to go to a summer program, do it. Read some books about managing teen emotions.[/quote]
