I have a DD 12yrs. Writing this as myself and DH seem to be going around in circles with DD. She lies (a lot) not just small ones, some whoppers too. Once had to go to the school as she said she was being picked on, lots of tears etc. When the story came out the person she had accused had nothing to do with it, and at the same time found out that DD and a best-friend were having big bustups ending in punching each other. She was caught taking money out of our money jar, she gets pocket money. Sends bitchy emails (we put a check on this as we thought DD was being bullied) although when we had MSM installed DD was found to be joining in micktakes of other friends.
Just don't know what to do.Have tried to help her, even asked if she would like to speak to childline, which she did for the school incident,good advice was given, but we always end up back to square 1, dishing out the same advice.It really gets to me, upsetting that I can't seem to help her. I have even tried turning the old blind eye, no joy also.
