I have name changed, as I'm embarrassed.
My dd 12 almost 13 has been behaving badly for months now-
Rude, screams at us, swears, generally horrid.
We have taken things off her-phone laptop etc. grounded her, cancelled nice things and on and on.
Just lately things have got much worse. A few weeks ago, we found lighters and cigarettes in her room. We confronted her, cue screaming match and denial- friend had put them there etc.
Then last week her class went on a school trip and her head of year phoned us yesterday morning to say she had been sanctioned at school for calling her teacher a Fucking Bitch (on the trip).
We are really angry with her and have already told her she wont be going to x because of this.
Also making her write a letter of apology for the teacher.
Any ideas on what works please?
Not sure what's got into her, she has always been a strong character but was always so nice and kind too.
Any words of advice gratefully received.
