Some of this may be just teen aged angst, but that doesn't mean it's okay. My kids do the same things as you are talking about. We are dealing with that in our family counseling. And that would be my suggestion to you. Family counseling would be a great thing for you, especially since the kids have lived in a different home for quite sometime where there were different rules.
There are usually places that charge according to ability to pay, or if you have insurance you may be covered for family or individual counseling.
I think you need to set some boundries and stick to them. Counseling could help you with that.
Good luck and keep us posted.
If another post from me shows up, sorry, I posted and it disappeared, it said basically the same thing as this does.
