[quote=Anonymous]Perhaps more serious consequences would be helpful? If she won’t hand over her car keys, then sell the car or put a boot on it. If she won’t hand over her phone, then cancel her line. Put your car keys/wallet in a lock box so she can’t steal your car. I don’t think her behavior will improve until you figure out the cause of it. Other posters are probably right in that she wants her father’s attention. I can understand how you might need a break from her temporarily, but her staying at her mother’s house shouldn’t be a long term solution. If she’s really dysregulated next time she is at your home, you could take her to the Psych Hospital in Falls Church. They may be able to come up with a medication that would help her ADHD/help her control her impulses, which may help your home life a bit. [/quote]
