We do not need the money and her parents are poor.  She attacked my daughter as part of a gang related initioation.  The gang is targeting rich preppy girls.  My daughter was expelled because of the no tolerance rule in schools.Do you think that she will be more targeted.  We live in a small town where evry one is worried because almost everyones daughter that has any money daughter is on 'the list'

nah you have to find the minor and set him/her straight, the parents have nothing to do with this besides the fact that they raised a crappy kid. sueing the parents will just get you easy money, but you need to find the minor and throw him/her boot camp.

Sounds like your girl friend's parents need to take action. Contact the school, push them to do something, AND file criminal charges against him. \n\nResulting to violence only adds oil to the fire. Use your head instead of your fist. I know, it can be very difficult but don't level yourself to his level. Any time a dude hits a girl, is a coward. I'm quite sure he's not going to step to any guy that way. Be smart and push your girlfriend to file charging against his sorry azz.

She's 13 and probably naive.  I think her parents are just looking out for her safety and well-being.  I think both sides need to sit down and discuss this, rather and argue.

I am a pesky parent. my 21yr old lives any from home and goes to college and I still talk to her about her grades.She knows that I only want the best for her and that I am concerned and love about her.If I didn't pester her,she would think I didn't care.She says she loves me for doing it[even tho sometimes I am a pesky parent]She wouldn't have it any other way!!!p.s.I hope the answer you got from brnbrn3 was a joke even tho it was not funny. Ihave a 17yr old grand daughter who ran away on nov 21 2005,we haven't heard from her yet!!! An update incase you were wondering or praying for us.They found my 17yr old grand daughter on Monday Jan 9 2006.She is fine other than the fact that she has really messed up her life.She had big plans to go to college now she has missed so much school this year ,she can't even graduate.She was a straight A student  Senior year.She now sits in detention awaiting her day in court to see what the judge is going to do with her.So don't run away,and someday when you are sucessful, you will love your pesky parent as much as my daughter loves me.and someday hopfully my granddaugher will ,too!!!

Her parents should be strict. You should mind your own business. :)

She must be herself, if she doesn't, well, she might become one of the slutty girls.(sorry for that word) She needs to pay attention in class, make good friends, get good grades, and do not let peer pressure get to her! It's evil. I swear, I didn't and I'm great. Good luck to your daughter!

Why not just be an adult and ask the other set of parents?  Let's try to stop putting children in the middle of our quarrels.  It sounds like there is a bit of a feud going on here, so keep it off of school property.

I think that is way to young. You don't want to get into trouble no do you? Keep in mind her parents could call the authorities. You just need to watch out for yourself, get rid of the little girl. DEE DEE DEE!!

Hey - it's all good...but, as others said, I'd advise to wait until you are graduated (if not already).  You're of age...why not?  Just one question to consider, though...will it destroy the families?  Does she have kids?  What would they think?  Would your parents approve?  I guess they couldn't really do anything, but you don't want to destroy your relationship with them over something not even real yet...If you feel comfortable with it all, though, hold nothing back...go get her!

I had a friend like your friend Kayla, who only was a sometimes-friend.  In the end, she got mad at me for no real reason in high school and tried to have me expelled.  Girls like Kayla care more about a boy who will be out of her life in six months than an old friend.  She probably has some serious self-esteem issues, which aren't likely to go away anytime soon.  It's your choice if you want to put up with this or not.  I'm sure that there are much nicer, more secure girls in your school that you can hang out with.

obviously depending if shes a minor or not, could she not get in contact with socail services? if shes 16 or over she has the option to just leave without her parents permission, she can not be left on the streets, with the right help she could be housed in a bedsit. x She is old enough to just walk out! and so are you! if both or one of you work can you not both find some where small for you to live together? come on the pair of you are at your ages classed as young adults, she doesnt have to stay at home with her parents, im getting the feeling your not from the uk are you? or america? other wise im sure youd have both done your own thing by now.

You could search job core on the internet, but I had a friend who got in even more trouble when she went. You have to remember that most of these kids are usually in some type of crisis, which is why they ended up there in the first place. With her having emotional issues, that may not be the best option for her. Thats just my opinion, though. Im sure many kids have turned their life around from job core. I think it's more of taking personal responsibility for your past actions that makes some kids thrive there and some get into more trouble. Just take into consideration how easily she is influenced by her peers. If she gives in easily to peer pressure, I would consider another option. Maybe surrounding her in a controlled environment with other emotionally disturbed girls would be of greater benefit. Good luck and I congratulate you on being a concerned parent. Your daughter has that in her favor.

Well the the chance that nothing was done to provoke is slim. Although in you mine and your daughters eyes it probably was nothing, but in a gang mentality it probably was. One of the friends may have looked at one of them wrong. May have had previous run ins with them. etc. etc.   maybe the one that said they were doing it just for fun really didn't know why. however, i am sure there was at least one person who was doing it for a reason. I feel for you it is tough.

Some people are missing the point here--this little girl is eleven years old. She doesn't owe her mother rent or grocery money because she is a child--the money was in the bank--the only one who could get it out was the mother. This child earned this money all by herself---and her mother blew it on booze and junk !\n\n\n\nAs a grandmother with seven grandchildren, I can tell you exactly what to do.\n\nCall your grandparents and tell them what she did and that she won't pay you back.\n\n\nYour mother better be glad she isn't my daughter--I would probably still take a switch to her.\n\n\nand while you're at it---tell you dad what she did. \n\nGRRRRRRRRRRRRR.....that makes me mad!!!\n\n\n\n*well you sound like a good and responsible little girl. Your mother is darn lucky to have you. You certainly do alot of work.

Loyal to YOU?  Because you poked her and got her pregnant?  Dude, where do I start.  In my country she would own YOU to the tune of several hundred $ a month child support.  Do you even bother to send money to support your kids?   I would date her, and dude, I am 6'5", you wouldn't want to mess with me.  She should concentrate on her kids, yes, and kick your butt out of hers and her kids' lives.  I hope she reads this.  FIND A DECENT GUY, GIRL.  Ditch this overcontrolling "great" egotistical dingleberry.  And to you, boy.  Get it cut and don't spread more of this misery

I believe the media tried to sabotage it, so they can sell more papers/get higher ratings.  I think she made a deal with the kid's father who knew that he couldnt provide for his child the way that she could.  No I dont think she got special treatment.  If I had as much money as she does, I would do the same.

This morning with my 16-year-old daughter. She made the mistake of asking why she had to listen to me, anyway?\n\nI pointed out that since I pay for everything from the clothes on her back to the food that she eats to the $150 soccer cleats I just bought her that she HAD to have -- then she has to listen to me. \n\nI also pointed out that since I still have the receipt for those yet unworn cleats, I would have no problem bringing them back if she didn't smarten up and act like the mature human being she keeps telling me she is.\n\nShe decided to smarten up.
