I sympathize with you. We have a teenager with an attitude also. When you come up with the answers, let me know.

My two teenagers were driving me crazy until I heard a talk by Dr. Ray Guarendi at a homeschooling conference. I also bought his book, "Good Discipline, Great Teens." Totally, totally changed our lives for the better.
We started making them write essays, good well thought out essays about their attitudes and behavior. We would assign the essay and enforce a total blackout--grounding, no cell phone, movies, leaving the house, etc. until the essay was finished to our satisfaction. It worked wonders, and I was kind of amazed at what intelligent thoughtful kiddoes they are. Ha Ha.
Here's a link to his website. http://www.drray.com/about.htm He's a father of ten and a clinical psychologist, so he's seen it all.

And I'm with Mrs. JR in the no kids camp. I KNOW God was looking after my best interests when He didn't give me kids. I always thought I wanted six kids. I now know that I would not have handled that well, and they would probably be warped beyond belief. heh
