For the last month my dd, aged 15 and 12, have been completely out of control. They've been running away most evenings and have become increasingly aggressive, kicking and hitting me. They have also been involved in anti social behaviour.
Tonight we had a meal out with my mom. While I was seeing her safely into her house - she's 83 - they ran off again. Found them and to cut a long story very short, took my oldest by the wrist to get her back into the car. The youngest pushed me over - I'm a big woman so she must have caught me off balance - and the oldest then kicked me couple of times as I lay on the floor.
I called the police who brought them home and gave them a good telling off but wouldn't arrest them. Police are returning to deal with them later in the week as they are now off duty for a few days.
I've got cuts and bruises and my neck and back are sore.
We already go to Camhs, and have social services involved and have had numerous contact with the police over the last month.
What do I do? What the hell do I do? They are adopted - have had them seven years - but I'm posting here rather than in adoption as that mainly seems to be about introductions, letterbox contact etc.
I've been reading another thread tonight where a parent has come under fire for saying she dislikes her teenage dd. I love my two but I'm beginning to hate them too. I don't know if we have a future but we can't carry on like this.
