I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing these things. Does she do any
of these things to other people? Grandparents, father..etc? I would
not let her get ahold of those cards, is there anywhere that you can hide
them? Also if she is threatening you, I would contact the authorities, if you
are afraid for your life. She may be involved in drugs or other activites
that are causing her to be acting like this. Do you have any support
at home? Husband, or friends? How is she doing in school? Is she
hanging out with friends a lot? The wrong crowd maybe? You need to get
her in control. Solicit your local police department..they can advise you
as to what they suggest that you do.
I doubt this helped you any, but hopefully she will get over this soon...
This could get worse. Last of all, can you contact the credit card
lenders and see if there are any actions that you can take - I know
that if someone steals your card, that you are covered in the event
that they charge away on your account. This acne..I don't think that
it would have anything to do with it... but could it be a sign of
something going on? I don't know.
Call the credit card company and tell them that your card/s have been stolen because they have been. If she threatens you with a cleaver, pick up the phone and call the police. They'll take her away for a psych evaluation and then get her tested for drugs.
YOu do have recourse, if it's an abusive b/f, or 14 yr old daughter.
I am so sorry that this is happening to you. Is there some kind of support you can get through church or family and friends???
Good Luck!

Bad acne is no reason for being out of control, there are plenty of good kids out there with horrible acne, and they are not out of control.
Hi there,
So sorry that you and your daughter are going throught this, teenage years a rollercoaster of sorts. Sounds like your daughter might be involved in drugs and or the wrong people. How is she at school. Bad acne does not cause kids to act this way. Has she always had bad acne or is this new. Acne can show up when drug use is involved, not necessarily just because of the drugs but a whole change in behaviour, not grooming anymore, attitude change, drops in marks at school, violent behavior, mood swings, changing friends, and a general dont give a crap attitude about anything including themselves.
Try to find out any way you can if drugs are being used. Do not let her see fear in you or you will lose, if she threatens you call the police.
Try to spend some time with her on a regular basis and you would be surprised at what ;you can learn from them.
My, from a mom looking to moderate a teen board with preschool age kids to someone who cant understand why they cant call people on the board names to the mom of a cleaver wielding teenager in just a few weeks
At least change your log in....
Or....better yet, do your homework so you can finish school and be a writer of fiction LATER
