Sorry, I don't have any idea of where you can find a 'Tough Love' Chat room anywhere for 'PROBLEM TEENAGERS'

As you say that you 16yo was 'locked up' for actions and now in a group home, is this group home a place where he /she is to be getting help?

I really do not even understand why you would even bother going to a 'Tough Love' Chat room at all, as seems you already have your mind made up that he/she is a 'problem teen' who you never want to come home.

I believe there is no such thing as a 'problem' teenager. In my opinion the teen years are very difficult and all teens have problems. Surely your 16yo must feel the vibes that you NEVER want the child home.

Do you not think that the very fact that the 16yo not only may be feeling unwanted, and unloved only it is being directly being shown by you that the feelings of being unwanted are in fact true.

I honestly feel for your 16yo that in one hand want a chat line for tough love and in the other you have no intentions of this teen ever returning home at all.

I am sorry if this is not what you wanted to hear, and being once a 'problem teen' myself know how much it hurts to feel and know you are not wanted by your parents. Without support from the family the cycle only continues. My advice would be to look for a chat room of parents who have difficult teens and practice unconditional love.

Peace
