hello everyone .i have never been on this board before so i am hopeing i am going in the right direction here with some of the problems i am having with my teens
well first of all i have 2 teens i am dealing with a 13 yr old step DD an 14 DD an boy i never thought in a million years it would be this hard so maybe i can get some advice on how to deal with this cause sometimes i feel like my head is just going to blow off.
1) is the nasty attitudes i have tried grounding taking thing away but still does not help
2) is ignoring me u tell them something an i get what ever i feel like i am talking to the wall
3) this one is my 13yr old favorite saying i forgot or cant remember she told me 1 time cause i ask her well how can u remember something that happen a year ago at schhol an not something i told u 5 mins ago an she said cause its not on my to worry list
4)then we have this well everybody else has or does it.. i tell them well u are not everybody else you are u
my 13 yr old i think alot of her problems are from where her mother has never really been in her life i have raised her scence she was 4 months old an her mother is a drug an acohol addic an she was in prison for 8 months an got out an told my SDD i am going to be there for u now an 2 days after she was out of prison went right back to drugs an drinking so i think she just has a lot of anger built up from her mother not being there for her we have offer to take her to talk to some one but she doesnt want to .
i am just at the point i dont know what to do no more i have broke out in hives cause of my nerves being so bad its just every week it is something new with these 2
sorry this was so long an thank you for reading it an any advice would help thanks
