[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Therapy, yes--for her, for you, and family. But honestly, also, a nature focused sleepaway camp, ideally all girls, that doesn't allow cell phones..give her a break from the family and social media, give you a break from her, let someone else (counselor) work on the hygiene issues with some modeling from peers. Get a bunch of camp brochures and let her pick. This is not a punishment. [/quote] I can't see this ending well. While well-meaning, good kids, your regular teen camp counselor is NOT going to be equipped to deal with a struggling child like OP's DD and then there's the real possibility she would end up ostracized or bullied for her behavior. [/quote] I am not sure how much op's kid would struggle away from school and family stresses. Hygiene is relaxed but regimented at camp (a set shower time, for example). Of course she should also get counseling and meds if needed. But I really think op needs a break and a reset. [/quote]
