My husband and I raised two daughters who are so opposite. Our oldest was no problem,no teenage crap,respectful,college graduate,successful,network of wonderful friends and connections. Younger daughter suspended from grade school,middle school,high school. Yes very bright but a terrible student. Nothing but trouble,arrested for assault at 16,liar, manipulater, drunk since 14.Wrecked several cars. She has talked to us and treated us so horrible that I can't even write about it. It would take me all night to describe the sheer hell she has put this family through. She has forever altered our family. It has been a nightmare. Married in 2007, had a baby 11 months later and we have had custody of her since she was six months old. She met her match when she married this fool who she knew for about five minutes. He is absolutely worthless.If his lips are moving he is lying. They are both in the Army. I am 55 yrs old and raising another child. Our lives will never be the same. We adore our grandaughter and are just thankful that we have her instead of being put in a foster home. So much of this is going on. It is epedemic... Grandparents raising grandchildren. This generation seems to hang on to destructive adolescent behavior instead of moving into responsible adulthood.

Tracy, My heart goes out to you!! I hope I will never have this problem when I have kids! I will be praying for you, your family, and your daughter! I believe there is still hope when it seems that all hope is gone. May god bless you all who are going through this same thing!! And if there is anything I can do please let me know!
Hugs,
Channah
