today is not a good day

You are not alone. I am not a parent, but a psychiatric nurse. I see this all the time. Has she ever been inpatient? It may be a good idea before things escalate and she begins hurting herself or you.....And you cannot blame yourself. My parents blame themselves that I had an eating disorder. There are so many reasons why things happen. Is she on meds? Get support for yourself so you can care for her. Hang in there. You may never know what positive thing you say or do to your daughter is helping and that she will always remember. There is hope. You will always be her mom, forever.

Hi momgonecrazy, I am a parent. My heart goes ouot to you. It is hard at times being a parent. If it were me, I would start with seeing your doctor about this and then go from there. There is help available. Please feel free to continue to share with us. We are here for you. ((((hugs))))

So yesterday I finally decided it may be time to give my baby up to someone who can help her. It has broken my heart but I just can't take anymore. Just in a few days the problem has escalated to outright defiance and pure purposeful misbehavior. And the worst part about it is she just doesn't care what anybody says anymore. She laughs at me if I try to say somethingto her. I don't know what else to do

Thank you so much for your support. I really appreciate it. It seems like there is something new every day to put up with. And having someone outside of the family to lend an ear is really helping me alot. Thank you so much.

I am always here to lend an ear and support. I know how much that means to us moms. We love our kids and want the best for them. I love being a mom but there is lots that come with it. You always have to be prepared for the unexpected so I have learned. You may not always like it but you have to accept it and then decide what to do if action is necessary. Making decisions concerning our kids can be so very difficult at times but we don't have to do it alone. ((((hugs))))

So now my daughter's behavior coach expects me to just let her do as she pleases. He also wants me to be able to not show any kind of emotion when she does something she shouldn't. I don't think I am capable of this. I have another child who is chronically ill, anf this is affecting her. She is already telling me that it is unfair that she gets in trouble but big sister doesn't. I will NOT let this afeect my baby. I can not allow her to become hurt by this. I am so torn.

My child now says she hates me and she doesn't care what I say or do, she will continue to do as she pleases no matter what. I am afraid she may be BPD, but she is so young. How do I cope with child who is not much more than a baby, who just doesn't give a damn anymore. This is affecting my relationship with my husband and my other child. How doI stop that from hapening. I think I have to give her up, even for a little while. Just to help her and save my own sanity.
