Thats funny, I just about paid my cousin to do something similar with my sister when they were both in highschool

Seeing as I am still in this "age group" that you are talking about, I really can't contribute much more then that to this conversation

Jason, only met you briefly, and talk to you on here some.
But you seem like a fine young man, with good judgement for the most part, and I hope my daughter turns out as good as you.

If you rode Cats instead of Doo's you would be darn near perfect. Kidding

But seriously, I hope she outgrows this.
I try so damn hard with her, I really do.
I try to get to know her pals, we have them over for meals, sleep overs etc.
But after yesterday finding out about all the lies, and deceit, its really hard.
I also wa sure she did not smoke, and yet found cigarette wrappers in her locker, tht she swears are other peoples.
But after all her lies, its really hard to trust anything she tells me.

Thanks to all of you for the advice, and support.
I will survive this I am sure, it just sucks going thru it is all.

Yeah Marty dude. You seem to be going down the road least travelled with yours thats for sure.
Speaking of going down roads hell Im off the Highway off the side streets Im in the ditch with putting up with mine.

She figures shes the queen B around here and does everything to try to prove that she is. From slamming doors to yelling at her 5yr old sister I can never understand that My 14 yr old has these outrageous arguments with her 5 yr old sis. When I ask her why she just says cause.
Why with a 5 yr old man??? Shes pushed her sis damn near hit her sis if I wasn't there to stop her she would have.
School now that a diff story man shes got 2 counsellors working with her and a native support worker.
Yes she is from a split family in which she says that every night she cries for her Mommy. Hell she had a visit not to long ago when her Mother decided to come down from Port Hardy to see her. When it was time for her Mother to go back. The daughter wanted to go. I wasnt the only one that wasnt going to let her go with her Mother. The Mother has a huge drinking problem drug problem and too boot has 6 other kids all with in the ministry s hands. Including my 15 yr old Son. Now hes a real card as well living up there hes gottin into the drugs the drinking and been to jail a few times. The Mother just dont care cause half the time shes baked outa her tree as well. The ministry tried to set up a visit for my daughter to go up there and visit under one condition. She wasnt allowed to be around any one drinking drunk and or other wise and she had to promise to get on the plane when the visit was over. Her Mother tried to hide her up there took the cops to come get her and physically put her on the plane back.
After all that she threatened to kill her self several times. The counsellors are concerned as so am I and the wife.

Mothers day was a joke as well one thing lead to another that day she was lashing out all day and most of the night decided to run away got picked up by the cops and brought back to the district house. Took some interviews from her me and my wife brought her back to where we where sitting in the cop shop and talked to all of us. At that time sometime in the discussion she looked at my wife told her to shut her face and that she doesn't want her as a mother step mother or anything that shes dirt that she walks on. All on mothers day. Took allot in me not to snap.

I do love her and always have. But Im absolutely at wits end here man. Im seriously trying to find a counsellor for the wife and I to see. This goes on much more and The woman whom I love with my heart and soul might just one day decide its too much and leave, She keeps me together. She keeps me whole

People are very surprised that I dont start drinking again. But I beat that demon once. Once in a while I still do but not as much as I use to.

So Marty Dude. I hope I hope it never gets this bad for you. As for me Im just stupid I guess I put up with it and try to mend it as much as I can.
