Hi
I have a troubled teenager
14yr old, on our 2nd child in need plan. Expelled from 2 schools. Smoking weed, runs away, don't know where she is who she is with. No apologies when she gets home. She does not care, comes and goes as she please. She is verbally and physically abusive. I have previously asked for her to be removed from my home but social services don't care, instead they send me on parenting classes. We have family therapy,drug worker in place but the behaviour gets worse . I am under extreme stress and cannot take it any more. Can I ask social services to remove her? Her Dad is not involved with her anymore. Its been 2yrs of bad behaviour past 6 months very bad. Any advice please? I can't cope with her anymore.

Yes I think you can. Hugs x

@destroyedpeople thanks for the hugs but how? I don't know where she is since 4pm yesterday. Frequently absent from home overnight and sometimes days. I don't know what to do with this child.

I am sorry I don't know. Phone them and tell them? Sorry I can't say much but have been there and a social worker should be able to give better advice. Phone the duty social worder now and ask.

The social worker and police are aware. They can't do anything. Past 2 weeks using my home as a base comes and goes every 3 days. I am powerless. She does not listen to anything I tell her. Don't know where or who she is with.
I really cant cope any more. She is verbally and physically aggressive towards me. It seems as if there is nothing I can do but to put up with it. At 14yrs completely gone off the rails. What do I do?
