Agree...but...


Be sure the counselor is focused on helping her cope. Far too many just listen to them and consider providing a place for them to vent to be counseling. In many cases with teens especially, they are just going through things that they don't have the skills to deal with. They need help with coping with what is not going away.

We all have times when we feel it's just too much, we are just more experienced with dealing with those feelings and responding. Our kids need that help because many of us have been so good at making great lives for our kids that they've never dealt with true adversity.
