[quote=Anonymous]No phone or limited to calls and texts with you. No hanging with friends for now. No screen time beyond schoolwork. The “disciplinary” measures may just need to be those and lots of genuine, loving attention from you — and her other parent, if present. I understand that will be hard considering your SN child. But you will have to find a way. Play board games. Visit the library. Go out to dinner and a movie. Go for hikes and walks. Bowling. Dave & Busters, even. Busy busy busy with wholesome family activity. It’s hard, I know, but your kid is worth it. There are 13-yr-olds like this at my kids’ school. I know some of the parents and some of these kids. The parents are not absent parents, but they are busy, working parents probably like most of us here. Some kids will just be drawn to these types of activities, no matter the parenting style.[/quote]
