Single Parenting Support Group
Today being raised by a single parent is not uncommon. About three in ten children live in a single parent home. The most common type of single parent home is one with only a mother. However, single father homes are the fastest growing type of family situation; 60% growth in the last ten years alone.
My 14 yr old hates the new school, refuses to work with the teachers and often skips school. Am I wrong in teling her school first at all cost and if she doesn't go to school every day I'll take away weekend visits? I hate being like the bad wolf but I love her and want to keep her with me. Next time child protective takes her I can't have her back.

Hi Tinerbell, I noticed you hadnt received any replies to your post. It is just a suggestion but there is a group called parenting teenagers 12 - 18 year olds. I myself am in the group parenting tweens and found the group very helpful with my concerns over my 11 year old. I do also have a 15 and 17 year old but no problems with those two... You may find the parenting group helpful. All the best, hugs Annie
