Really crap day just had to send my oldest daughter (17) to stay with her aunt as she was just taking the p*** in here and being downright disrespectfull to my OH and myself this is after sitting her down several times this year and asking her to toe the line and get a grip but to no avail. I know it sounds bad but we are at the point where we do not know what to do to get through to her that this is not a f****** hotel and it's affecting the younger kids. HELP.

Oh cookie, what a rough day you've had I'm hoping that you've got a bit of breathing space now to think things through:) perhaps she'll miss her home comforts and realise what she's missing.

Thinking of you:)

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:It was the deodorant I was going for, having looked at it a few times I have mixed it with the cash back I was going to do later in the week . what an idiot, need to make myself some rules
Rule 1 Do not go shopping when your stressed
Rule 2 Do not make one list make two, just in case half of list one is missing
Rule 3 Put brain in action before putting items in trolley
Rule 4 Remember these flaming rules :)

Aww hugs cookie raider. Teenage girls are sometimes :mad: mine got into a bit of trouble recently, caused all sorts of grief and her attitude is awful sometimes. She's a bit younger than yours.

Maybe a bit of cooling off will help all round? It's good that you have somewhere that she can go so you can all have a bit of space. Don't feel bad, lovey. It's hard when you've got other kids that are being affected as well. With any luck she will realise what she has at home and how disrespectful she's been. Keep the lines of communication open though :A

But a cooling off period will be good for all of you . She"ll be feeling sore at the moment and you are irritated by her attitude. Things will look different tomorrow. Goodluck:)

Things will be raw for you tonight. Have a beer or a glass of wine, go to bed and get some sleep. You know she's somewhere safe being looked after and you and your family will have a quiet night.

Ring her tomorrow and see how she is. You don't have to have a big conversation, just ask how she is. That way she knows you care and that you're thinking about her. Short and sweet Do that every day/night for the next few days and see where it goes.

Oh and come here if you need to vent

Hope things settle down quickly for you all xx

I have no words of wisdom I'm afraid, I can tell you that I was a right madam when I was a teenager, I cringe sometimes when I think back :o I'm sure your DD will feel the same
