You two are cracking me up!!

As for the drugs, I completely agree that children are put on drugs WAY too often as an "easy" way out. I think prescriptions are given because it's less time and energy than trying to get to the root of the problem--for both parents and professionals.

I personally don't think one needs to run their kids off to a doctor every time they misbehave. She's a teenager...if you think you're feeling crazy...can you imagine what your daughter is feeling???

I hate to admit it...but I was a terror and my poor mom had her hands full.

Don't smother her, but do more mother/daughter things, nothing special, just spend quality time together...it will work and she will get better. It always nice to remember they'll grow out of it...lol

No - not every time - but if there is a pattern, or if the behavior doesn't fit the situation, it makes sense. Teens don't have to be moody - it's not a given at all, IMHO. I was a "moody" teen myself and now know that most of that was allergic reactions - I would have much rather been in control of my emotions, had more choices. My son, who has the immune system support, is not moody. If he is ever on edge it is fatigue or an allergic reaction, that's it. Our friend's whose kids - boy or girl - have this support have a minimum of teen moods, too.

Also wanted to say that I have been researching this area for over 18 years, am director of a support group of folks with these issues, and have counseled dozens of families on this approach to building strong immune systems. So when I speak about it, I am talking from years of experience, working with many people and with MDs, psychologists, and alternative health specialists.

Chloe ugh!

You are right, most teenagers go thru these mood swings I think par of it has to do with her "you know what" if you know what I'm talking about....it's always been a problem.

These specialists have vaccines for hormones - amazing impact on the mood swings tied to monthly cycles.

I have to agree with Janet 100 percent on this one I to was that daughter who rebelled and I to have a daughter and have gone through that stage with her. She is now 20 and in college and is starting to show maturity.

This is a age where they test the waters, they listen to their friends as if they were listening to the gospel. Just continue to do like Mandy mentioned, show your authority and discipline her as you usually do. Ignore the eye rolling gestures . This will eventually pass and at the end of these crazy teenage years she will return to the lovely young lady that she is...
