    I know someone at end of tether with her teen daughter - she will not be allowed back to school as she jumped through a top storey window in a class argument, she is burning sweet wrappers, tayto bags in her room - totally defiant but looks like a little wee angel. Her mother is seriously heading for a breakdown - has kids from 2 partners but now on her own, the daughter went to kick her mother down the stairs yesterday. Guards have been called often in last while, social services won't meet her even though she has rang several times. Anyone any suggestions who to contact that can offer solutions... Thanks ...

    I believe Barnardos offer a service for parenting.I know of someone with a younger (8/9 year old) child who used it,it could be an option.If not, they may have other suggestions as to where the mother could go.

    Having similar problems with my own daughter. Was at the end of my tether. Took her to the gp out of desperation, she had referred her for full psychological assessment but in the meantime recommended the Jigsaw service for my daughter and a family counselling service for us all. We've had one session with the family counsellor so far and my daughters first appointment with Jigsaw is today. She is also seeing school counsellor. Strongly advice reaching out for outside help, only sorry we didn't to it sooner. Already feel like my load has been lightened in trying to deal with her.
