Hi, know exactly where you are coming from, my daughter whom I love dearly left home on 13th of January to stay at a friends for the night then txt me to say she is going to live there, she hasn't been home since, she is now not there- but at her friends auntys place which is not far from where I live, I have no idea how she is surviving as I will not give her a cent, she is also very verbally abusive when she doesn't get what she wants, very much like a 2 year old having a tantrum but ten times worse, starts throwing her wait around gets physical, but I just pick up the phone and start to call the police as that behaviour is not acceptable in my house, btw this all started over her not being allowed to do any more washing until she hung out her last lot that had been sitting in a washing basket for a day and a half lol We do not ask a great deal of her, her curfew is reasonable and just ask that her few chores are done before anything else or going out, stubborn as a mule has even admitted to she doesn't like being told what to do, My reply "We don't tell you what to do..... we ask nicely there is a big difference".
I work full-time in a high pressured job, this all makes life very stressful and disruptive, truth be known it is Monday I am off work having a mental health day as the worry is incredible.
My daughter has a Saturday job in a cafe which she loves, I guess that will partly help towards her food, and I am paying for her schooling as she is extremely bright and doing well at school, unfortunately brightness does not include common sense which she lacks, all she is doing is adding unnesscessary stress to her life. Apparently she is going to apply for the unsupported childs benefit, I wished her luck with that, I have contacted social workers and police as this isn't the first time she has lived away from home, I guess some kids just have to learn the hard way.
BTW GOOD LUCK!!!!!!At least we know we're not on our own, its like some sort of an epidemic I call it "THE TEENAGE EPIDEMIC"
And when she does finally come home being the mother i am I will have her favourite dessert waiting for her, the best ever HUMBLE PIE. |
