Says it all really:( she has been difficult the last couple of years but nothing this bad. Last night she was told to stop messing about at dinner and to stop winding up her 6 yr old brother.
About half an hour later she says she doesn't want to be with us anymore and storms out. I manage to get her back in the house and try and talk to her but she s really rude and abusive saying she hates me and her dad ( mostly me though) and she isn't going to live here anymore and is leaving etc. I tell her she is not leaving. Goes to storm out again and finds doors locked so climbs out window.
She has sneaked out windows before at night and gone god knows where and I've found out much later.
Her sister(19) went after her but she hit her sister.
Came home a bit later and started shouting and carrying on being abusive. Dh snapped and really shouted at her so she starts hitting him and swearing. He walks off and after trying to speak to her calmly she says she s going to her room. We say ok as we are exhausted and she promptly hotfoots it out the door. She's been out all night. I texted her to say I needed to know where she is. She did text back but I've never heard of the friend she is apparently staying at but she's been lying about where she's been over last weeks so could be anywhere. Has various teenage friends( boys) with cars who seem happy to provide taxi service - she has very little money so god knows how she is paying them ( dread to think).
At a loss and she has said she is going to 6th form then back to friends then her pt job in the pub then back to friends.
Sorry this is long but don't know what to do and dh had to go to London at 5am. I Have hardly slept and been crying half the night:(
