DEAR DEIDRE: AFTER years of putting up with my teenage daughter\u2019s terrible behaviour, I\u2019ve reached my wits\u2019 end.<\/p>\n

She is nasty, argumentative and patronising. In fact, she can\u2019t be nice unless she wants something. I don\u2019t know how to tell her I\u2019ve had enough and that it\u2019s time she grew up.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m 50 and my daughter is 19.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She\u2019s been living with me and her stepmother, since her abusive mother left her, nine years ago.<\/p>\n

They\u2019ve barely seen each other since.\u00a0 Her mum never remembers her birthday or sends a Christmas present. <\/p>\n

My daughter was a sweet little girl but she turned into a monster at 13.\u00a0She only emerges from bed to buy cigarettes and she smokes and drinks far too much.<\/p>\n

Despite being bright, she quit school at 16 and has never had a job that lasted long.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not just fed up with the situation, \u00a0I\u2019m desperately worried about her.\u00a0 What can I do?<\/p>\n

DEIDRE SAYS:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>Your daughter\u2019s mother abandoned her at a very young and vulnerable age. Since then, she has made no effort to repair their relationship.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

It\u2019s very likely this is at the root of your daughter\u2019s issues.<\/p>\n

If she acts like she doesn\u2019t care about anything, that\u2019s probably because what happened has left her feeling worthless and rejected. She also sounds depressed.<\/p>\n

When she\u2019s rude, she\u2019s probably trying to test you to see if you\u2019ll leave her too.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Make it clear you love her and want to help.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Contact\u00a0youngminds.org.uk\u00a0(0808 802 5544), which has a parents\u2019 helpline. Also see my support pack on Depression.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Also, please suggest she takes a look at The Mix website and helpline for under-25s (themix.org.uk, 0808 808 4994).<\/p>\n
