[quote=Anonymous]Our 14yo has been receiving therapy for about four months, and she's been pretty stubborn about it, so they haven't made any progress.  Most sessions are her sitting for an hour refusing to speak and playing games on her phone.

DH and I talked about turning this into family therapy sessions instead, as we think that would be more productive.

We want to get advice on strategies to use at home for a lot of the issues we are dealing with. Things like making verbal threats to kill us, refusing to let us in her room to clean it, and also refusing to clean her room at all (it becomes a complete disaster within 2-3 days), leaving her things all over the house, refusing to help out with the family (chores like setting up the dinner table or cleaning up after), staying up until midnight, skipping meals, refusing to attend paid-for activities, making us late to everything.  And in general making every decision point impossible, and being a terrible role model for her younger siblings.

Is this a good idea?[/quote]
