FAMILY COUNSLING IS A JOKE!!!

jstorie's picture

My sd is in a theraputic home has been since July. I don't think it is doing her any good. I didn't go to family counsling saturday becuase I had already made plans to go do a painting class. So we had a phone family counsling on Tuesday. I really didn't say a word, sd didn't even ask if i am there. counsler asks if she had been making phone calls to me. sd said well i didn't monday becuase we got calls before she even got off work. which is true. then she got another one that evening and called her grandmother.

No child support except once since 2001

We have recieved child support one time and my sd14. they took it from her taxes. she actually called us a month before taxes and asked if she could give up all rights so she didn't have to pay child support. She does not see sd14 at all has talked (per judge) to her less than a handful in 11 years. Child support enforcements can NEVER serve her bc she will not open the door. Is there anything we can do?

borderline personality disorder

All this time it has been my fault my sd14 acts the way she does. DH has only started believing me this last year about his daughters actions. When she was living with his mom and decided to steal a boys backpack and wear all of the clothes including shoes and got suspended from school. Not that she has been kicked out of my home,grandma's home, aunts home and is now living in a theraputic home, we might be close to getting some answers but its scary for a 14 year old to have adult diagnosis.

I am somewhat lucky, I don't have to deal with BM or BM'S family. But the last twoo weeks I have had run ins with them. however they don't know who I am. The first time we were at my mother in laws house sitting in the car. The BM'S Mother pulls up next to us and start yelling at DH saying (imagine in the most hick accent) "Whywon't you let me see my grandaughter you fool." DH "Can you please get off my mothers property?

if i hate you why am i writing a paper over you being my role model.

talked to DH yesterday

sd14 in the theraputic home...not much of one. they can't really get a grip on her either. I told DH yesterday I was going to disengage told him what that is going to look like. he said why? I said for one she is not going to work on a relationship with me. she has proven it and by her not doing it and my feeling being so damn sensitive it is making me feel worse. so take me out of the equation maybe if shes not forced to "like" me she will work on a relationship with you. I am going to tell her all of this in family therapy tomorrow.

What is disengagement?

What is disengagement? How does it work? Im young and my sd14 is half my age. shes in a theraputic home but will be comming home in couple months. I need to start working on it now. or when she comes home it will be a war zone and I have to keep my boys in a safe enviorment without seeing all her bullshit. I am a control freak so somebody please help me understand.

What is wrong with me?

So I should be thrilled... my sdaughter14 is in a theraputic home...she is finally out of the home and has been since the end of July. She has acted up quite a bit there too. She is supposed to be working on a relationship with me that is what the therapist said to me. she is supposed to talk to me weekley. I say to her do not call on wednesdays i cannot answer it I will be at work. So she picks two days a week that she can call Mondays and Wednesdays. Every Monday she calls her MEME. not me. Im doing my best to have a relationship! I send her a letter once a week.

Family Counsling

So I guess I'm just fed up and I am in a awful mindset. I should be happy! My DH finally did something this last time she got kicked out of her Aunts and mouthed off to us. He put her in a Theraputic Girls Home. GREAT RIGHT! Well now she calls constantly with that fake voice and asks to speak to her brother who started pre-k yesterday. she wants to know how it went. well its after bed time so no. but DH let her. I told him its bull sh*t to do that hes already in bed if she really cared about him she wouldn't be doing all this crap.

So we drive six hours to go get dear sd and bring her home becuase she got kicked out of her aunts house. Came home with $500.00 worth of brand new clothes and a bad additude. In the car I say what makes you think you can come home? i kicked you out for being an ungrateful young lady. she said im not going home... What? where do you think you are going? I ask. She tells me she is going to foster care! Why in the hell would you think you were going there? Foster care is for people who don't have anyone to love them!
