It's difficult with a teenager in the home, let alone a troubled teen. I went through that with both of my daughters (10 years apart).

All you can do is establish boundaries in your home, and enforce them.

Worrying to the point of being sick does nothing but wear you down, hon.

I know for me, I have had to hit many bottoms in codependency before I was willing to let go and let God. Parenting two daughters was no exception.

The difference between God's will and mine is that my will hurts.

God has brought you this far. He isn't going to let you down now.
