[quote=Anonymous]Good Lord there are some awful people in this thread. If parenting has taught me anything it's never say never, or as I've heard - As soon as you say "my kid would never" you're going to see them nevering like you never thought they could. My point is, the best, most well intentioned parents, have kids who make poor choices. OP, I'd say it's time to dial it all back and turn up the supervision. I've heard PLENTY of stories of kids your daughter's age getting in trouble for similar things. These kids aren't ruined or a waste. They're kids who made mistakes and need boundaries, limits, and guidance. Part of the problem is you will find a lot of parents don't do these things so that will feel like swimming upstream, which is hard. I agree that a family therapist could help. Hugs and good luck.
