Yes, after we got over the lame 'I fell in a bush' excuse it turned out she was keeping her boyfriend company. We kept a watchful eye, but haven't seen any further evidence of it. I'm sorry to hear about your daughter and respect your wish for her privacy. "They are easily influenced by other domineering characters" Tis true, and we're keeping a watching brief on one particular person she associates with... “Did she ever explain the cuts?” Yes, after we got over the lame ‘I fell in a bush’ excuse it turned out she was keeping her boyfriend company.

Did she ever explain the cuts? I went throgh a horrible time with two of my kids when they went through puberty but the third sailed through it, probably by latching onto relegion for a number of years. One of my daughters actually had horrific experiences which I only found out about in the worst of circumstances- when I was trying to slam my authority on her. I don't want to talk about it as I have never spoken about it to anyone and she is entitled to privacy about it. All I can say is that you need to know who your kids are spending time with. They are easily influenced by other domineering characters and it is natural for them to be rebelious during their teens. They are probably not the sweet innocent things you knew a couple of years ago.You have to be there for them but you also have to draw the line and point at it and spell out the consequences. They need to know whare they stand. No pun intended. You must have gone through Hell and back.Glad that it was made up. Did she ever explain the cuts?

LOL. Yeah, but it's kinda fun too. I know what you mean about 'lines' though. If she'd hidden the book away that would be one thing, but to leave it on a shelf is, as you say, another thing entirely. It's hard isn't it. You want to be there for your kids, but if they don't tell you ("parents never understand!!") how can you help? Hmmm... Sorry to read that your comment got swallowed (/dev/null?). I must confess that I tend to CTRL A a long post just in case. Maybe it would make a good blog post here? > no one said parenting was easy did they?
