When you find the answer please let me know. My stepdaughter sounds just like the second paragraph minus the stealing. I have a 4, and 8 year old and I would rather her not around them. They are well behaved and disciplined, but she is totally different

watch out!NEW by: Anonymous
My sisters step daughter was the same way. About a year ago we found her making my 8 year old son do things to her. We found out she was making 4 boys in the family do things with her. She told them if they told they would be in trouble because they are boys and she is a girl. We did call the police and she is only going to serve a year (even though she has told the police what she did). The boys ages are between 6 and 10. She was doing this with up to 5 adults in the house at one time. She has said she would do it again and told me she has been trying to get the older men in the family to do things with her. WATCH THAT GIRL!!!!

Help for Out of Control StepchildNEW by: Laura Ramirez
Dear Stacy,
I understand your situation and feel for you. Read my words carefully: get help for your step daughter NOW. She's only eleven and if you tolerate her bad behavior, it will only get worse with time. As disrespectful, provocative and defiant as she is right now, imagine what she'll be like as a teenager.
I would characterize her behavior as deviant and defiant. She may also be on her way to becoming a borderline. This kind of behavior does not go away on its own. Get yourself a copy of the Total Transformation which is a program that was developed by a therapist who was once a troubled child and teen himself and has created some simple techniques that parents and step parents have used to transform the behavior of kids and teens.
This program will teach you the techniques that will turn around your step daughter's behavior before it is too late and before the other children start to see the control she has by being disrespectful and behaving badly.
Thank you for being such a concerned and caring step mother and for recognizing that your family needs help.
