This sounds like the child I recently gave notice to. After many conferences and offering resources, I give them notice as they were not interested in "helping" the issue. I agree with previous poster.....no coping skills and largely due to the environment from the home but it has escalated to the point, it will now take some intervention. The issues are sad and cause me to feel like a failure, but we are not miracle workers. We need help from the home; hang in there Pestle. Communicate with the parents and hold them accountable. I waited entirely too long before I termed. I allowed my heart to get into it and that was not a good thing. Good luck!
