You are right , this is nuts. She is out of control ,and probably getting a lot of 'ideas' from the web , her friends, the 17yr old, and the rest.
If you do anything, you are the one who should call the police , have her taken to a juvenile faciltiy and have her psychiatrically evaluated. You should do this right away. She is out of control and if you are even at all aware of what is going on with 11 yr olds, they are having advanced sex, becoming very much experienced way before their time. There is a huge adult male (and other) market for 11 yer olds, and why in the world wyou would say she could 'date ' at 13, is beyond me or any other sane parent. NO NO NO.
You are letting this all happen, and it sounds like you know nothing about parenting and who is in charge.
You need parenting classes, and if you don't come down on this quickly and right away, it is going to excalate even more.
She is lost to you and the world of sex, drugs and acting out without any morals, or restrictions ., she may be salvagable if you do it now.
You are failing her.

No 11 yr old or 13, should be 'dating' , especially when they don't even know what that is or what it means.
To them , it means having sex, with anyone , randomly whether they know them or not.
She is on a slippery slope, and will be writing here, suicidal soon enough , if you don't step in and become a good role model, and do what needs to be done for her to not only learn values and love for her self, but what dating is, what permiscuous sex means, and how it harms people, drugs and the rest.
Otherwise, you will continure to fail.
Your choice.

I agree you need to grow a pair. She has planned all this as a response , and is determined to become a promiscuous person without any restrictions. Reign her in, or you will both suffer.
She probably knows exactly what to say to a psychiatrist, and will use that as a drug source.
no kidding.
She should be grounded, with all privelages taken , no communication to stage her next move, which will probably be running away. If not grounded than in a facility for juveniles, or a psychiatric locked girls facility, until she understands that this behavior wont be tolerated , and you know exactly where and who she is with at all times until she leaves home.
seriously. or you are already in trouble. If you don't believe what some 11 yer olds are doing, go watch some online free porn.
EDIT: Put up some nanny cams , and one in her room, and call the police and press charges against her if she hits you. File a complaint about the times she has already hit you. Tell them what is going on , and about her plans to falsely accuse you of abuse, also
You are in charge, so be in charge. If you let this go on, then you are guilty of abuse., but not in the way she means it as manipulation to get what she wants.
EDIT: You should probably also ask the police to check out her 'bf', who may or may not just be 17, and if not, press charges against him , for endangering a child, statutory rape since she has most likely been involved even if just oral sex. You need to understand that 'dating' in todays world IS sex and most likely drugs.
they jump in , don't know how to date, get in way over their emotional heads, and get suicidal and otherwise, don't study, and ruin their futures.
Go three pages back to neweer questions, and read kathryn s question about going to kill herself over a bf and her situation. We get questions like this everyday, on and on, because parents let their children have sex , and too soon, and get into drugs, and most dont have a clue what they are doing.
children cannot handle these things, and need to learn the appropriate ways of taking care of themselves and their emotions.

No dating until she's thirteen? My parents won't let me date until I'm in college, apparently - I'm 16 right now. But to answer your question, maybe she was just shocked and acting irrationally at the time, and as long as you didn't hit her, or say something emotionally abusive, it's not abuse, and if she threatens to call the cops tell her calmly that you will have to explain to the cops that she punched you and pushed her brother down the steps too. Maybe it's just a phase, but if she stays like that for a few days or more, it would be a good idea to speak to a professional. Anyway, good luck! :3

Life.



Sister, you need to grow a pair...I mean you need to step up and control this brat!

She's grounded! Tell her that Aunt Judy says she's grounded and there is no television, no phone, no computer time for a few days....then YOU make sure that she complies with the punishment for this kind of acting out on her part!

You can either do it now or it will get worse in future!
So what are you looking for here in Yahoo mental health? Did you want me to tell you that this was just a phase or that she is emotionally ill? No, she needs to have limits set by a good parent because the two things in childhood that WILL LEAD TO AN EMOTIONAL DISORDER ARE abuse and NEGLECT. And I think that neglect is the operative word here.
Momma, do your job.



If she hits you again, smack her back...then pull her by the hair into her room & spank her ***. Then tell her that she can go ahead and call the cops, you will tell them that she punched you in the face. Or not...but that's what i would do. I think you should tell her if she doesn't quit acting up your going to send her to a mental hospital, but before that ask whats wrong. she might really have issues, or could be just very rebelious. Idk that's not okay for her to hit you & threaten calling the cops-thats twisted i think. Get this sorted out right now & seriously consider beating her ***.



Sounds like she is bi-polar... U should take her to a doctor to find out.. People who have the problem tend to have suicidal thoughts without treatment..

Tv, psychology class, personal experience.



Take that child to a phychiatrist before she hurts someone
