Oh and if this is serious. Clean your family up. A few years back I had a distant cousin die at the same age. Snuck out to visit a boy in the middle of the night. Got struck by a baw going to work because she was riding her bike in the pitch black on a curve with low visibility. Feel terrible for that guy having killed a kid just trying to go to work. And of course it couldn’t have been fun for her neither.

These are real problems and this isn’t the place to come for advice. Best of luck to you in finding good help.

this is serious. be harsh. Best solution, remove her social media and physically move. go to a new school, new friends, new life before she ends her current life.

Two is better than one. Or is it?

My FIL nailed my SIL’s windows shut and painted over the window jams for extra measure. He installed a loud arse obnoxious alarm beeper on all doors/windows in house. Granted this was 20yrs ago but he set her arse straight

Sounds like a parenting issue

Spend more time together.
Take her shopping, to lunch, just the 2 of you.
Remind her you love her.

Counseling but honestly likely inpatient treatment. Good luck, this type of stuff is scary.

Disclaimer I don’t have kids
My opinion as someone who doesn’t have kids is meds & dropping her off at counseling aren’t going to help
Your entire family dynamic needs to change
Eat dinner together every night
Go hiking, go to the beach, find family oriented hobbies, anything that brings the family together on the weekends
Do you go to church?
If not, find a local church with youth activities, chances are she will make new friends
Punishment isn’t going to solve the issue on its own
I wish your family the best of luck
So many things happen at such a young age that can change their future without them realizing it

I am not saying she doesn’t need meds, especially after seeing post about biological father
She more than likely does & it may take time & different meds until it’s right
She needs more than just meds & counseling is what I was trying to say

vaping excessively
Bruh! So you’re okay with her vaping as long as it’s not too much? Empathizing is okay but it isn’t going to change her behaviors or anything else. Extricate the negative influences from her life and get some prof help.

Wife thinks I'm being too harsh and that we need to empathize
Your wife sounds like a big problem as to why the daughter is like this. She needs consequences, and unfortunately it’s a little late to be introducing those to her as they may just push her farther away. So my advice is professional help.
And the other thing you need to do is lock her down ASAP. Put things in place (do you have an alarm system) to ensure that she doesn’t sneak out. Track her phone. Etc. she is going to end up getting herself in some pretty dangerous situations and either make stupid decisions or have to deal with other peoples’ bad decisions against her.
I assume she had a smart phone and social media..? If so delete those immediately. They are only going to make it worse and likely are also a cause of some of this. Social media is evil and will be the ruin of the world one day.
Good luck, man. I don’t envy you at all. But hopefully she can find something positive in her life to help her focus and get (and stay) on the right path.

Damn, they getting DP’d at 14 these days?
I guess tell her congrats on the sex.

Best advice turn your house into a semi prison.. make the windows in her room not open… put sensor alarms on windows and doors so when they are opened it goes off… put tracking on her phone, and cut it off at certain times she cant use the phone, and constantly monitor… she is 14 not your friend… if she considers you and makes you out to be a warden than so be it, when she gets older she will thank you for it later… that’s what I see is the biggest problem now days, and that’s parents wanting to be the kids friends rather than being there parents and shut shite down fast and with force
