A family member has a dd aged 15.
Hasn’t been to school since she was 13 due to bullying.
Bullying led to gangs of kids outside the house threatening to burn the house down and batter the girl. So they moved house and changed school.
Girl decided that she didn’t like that school after about a week so stopped going.
Made a new set of friends, constant falling out, arguments with new group of friends, so cut off ties with them.
New group of friends arguments, constant falling out now smashing house windows, beat girl up, forcing their way into the house. Police called.
Education people involved prior to this, got girl on an education program at nearby college, but due to “immaturity and behaviour issues” she was asked to leave.
Single mother on her last nerve with it all. Landlord won’t replace windows, single mum can’t afford to pay for repairs, in debt, can’t move until repairs are done.
Girl is undergoing assessment as “they”(??) think that there is a problem with the girl from a psychiatric perspective.
It appears that she cannot form or maintain normal healthy friendships, she is constantly at the centre of any issues.
She is rude, cheeky, argumentative and very manipulative.
We are lost. What can be done?
Anyone know of similar circumstances?
