My 17 year aged daughter is extensive?
I have a 17 year old daughter who is about to be a senior. She's be through some hard things in her life - her father died when she be 11, I got remarried when she was 13 and she now have one half-brother who is 3 and am pregnant with our last. Through it all, we go to family therapy and spent plenty of girl-time together. She is well behave and polite, great with her little brother, great at school and great around the house. But she is such a 'party girl' it's tough to believe - I don't even know the half of it, only what I've seen.
She's be smoking cigarettes since she was 15 and at this point I cannot get her to stop. She goes out commonly with friends and I've found shot glasses and alcohol in her room and contained by her purse, as well as marijuana-related things. I've gotten angry, I've gotten upset, I've grounded her, I've tried talking to her, I've tried audible range her talk to me, I've sent her to therapy...but nothing is helping. I also be aware of hypocritical because I was a teenager once, my friends and I sneaked alcohol from our parents, I tried weed. Is this pay vertebrae from a high power?! Only joking...what can I do? Besides these destructive behaviors, she's a great girl! I have no point to complain other than these ILLEGAL acts!
try verry hard 2 hang on to her in the house so she wont go 2 partys like that
What are you complaining about? Shes polite, gets good grades, is respectful, very well behaved (whatever that is) and good to her siblings. Sounds like the model youth to me.
Drinking and smoking cigarettes are not good things, true. Smoking marijuana? Perhaps she is trying to get closer to God.
Stop the therapy, in all honesty, from personal experience and experience outside of that, it doesn't work. YOU obligation to connect with your child, praise her, don't yell at her for what she does wrong. She's acting like a commonplace teenager, if you went through these things, try not to be a hypocrit, let her know that you're in that and that you support her. She's a senior, soon she'll be in college and you won't have the power to ground and restrict her, if she's a good kid at home, she probably isn't have any major issues with adjusting-either that or doesn't feel comfortable letting on for your sake, and is coping next to it when out with friends.
Either way, she's going to be an adult within a very short amount of time, now more than ever she needs to know that even near a new husband, toddler, and baby on the way, you're competent to be there for her emotionally. Let her know you can relate, express your concern, maybe she'll open up, perchance it'll take more than that, but for goodness sake, let the poor piece be a kid, if she's responsible when she drinks-don't make it the end of the world. If not, prevent her from going out. She's normal, she's conducting tests the waters, and you're doing all you can to set boundaries. Back off a little and try a more ethereal approach. She'll be just fine.
Theres nothing wrong with weed and im 16,freshly leave her alone please.
Like the others said, meth and crack kills you not weed.
well you could report her to the police, or you can simply agree to mher do what you have already done. you didnt turn out bad did you? just produce sure she knows you know what she is doing and that you disaprove. remind her that you have done the same entity your self and that you know the dangers.
First of adjectives, stop the therapy. It's a joke, and it won't help. I know, because I budge to it, and I've had multiple doctors. I hate it, and it has if truth be told made me depressed. If she doesn't want to be helped, she won't be. So stop forcing her to sit in a room with some doctor. If she desires to go, it's a totally different story, and it could actually be helpful. But if she's against it, stop making her budge.
Secondly, she's 17. She's going to drink and smoke weed. What I would do is to take away her car if she has one. Tell her she can't achieve it back until she starts drinking responsibly. That means no driving drunk, no getting in a motor with a drunk driver and no going into dangerous areas. She's going to drink, and that's that. You can't stop her. But you can get her to do it responsibly. Marijuana is non-hazardous, so I wouldn't worry about that. If anything, I'd rather own my kids smoking weed instead of drinking.
Answers: okay you're lucky she is smoking weed. rather than doing crack or meth or any WORSE drugs.
i told my mom i smoke weed when i be 17 and she told me she was upset but she was glad i told her... you gotta let her know that you WONT bring back mad as long as she tells you what shes doing. not saying you wont transmit her what you think is right and if it is REALLY dangerous not allowing it. but shes a teenager she's going to body just make sure you get the point through that she neeeds to gossip to you about everything. Source(s): I personally believe weed should be legal. but that's of late me.
