Hi there
Iread your post. I have a 15 yr old daughter who is completly out of control. She has been very difficult since birth, but dispite this she failed a test for ADHD 3years ago. I still feel she has this problem and im having her re- asessed. She will not do anything you ask of her and swears and bullies her younger sisters. She causes immense stress in our house and i have even had to hand her over to temp foster care to give us all a break. Which broke my heart but she even ran away from there. I have been every where for help in the uk and to be honest i am so tired and worn out with it all. I havent got the energy to work anymore and my other two children are normal like yours and i hate the way they have to suffer because of her. I have tried punishments, rewards but nothing works and to be honest she is that impulsive i dont think she is capable of being in control.I wish i could give you some answers but there doesnt appear to be any real help out there and its just a living hell for any family who are going through this isnt it?
