First of all if she is getting into physical fights at her school she has issues. I never once came to blows ever in school. She doesnt need an ed con she needs a family counselor. Secondly, if she is this angry of a person, was she always this way? did you not find her help for her anger issues earlier than now? What kind of relatioinship do YOU have with her? Half the issues I hear about with teens stem from a sucky relationship with their parents. Not drugs, not peer pressure, mainly their relationships at home. Be a parent, get in her space, find out how she is feeling, ask her questions, get her opinions, find out what she wants, what she is angry at. If you dont get to the root of the problem, you will never get her better, and no amount of boarding schools, therapists or paxil is going to make her better. She needs to know you care and others care and that there are boundaries she cannot cross. If she understands where those boundaries are but also knows youll be there for her it should all work out. An Ed con should be called for educational and learning issues, in my opinion. Not for threats of shooting up a school.
