Last time that happened, I wound up having to apologize to the cops for my wife calling 911 and screaming and cussing at them. She was trapped behind some construction in front of our house. When I heard about it I called the police on the regular number, and when I asked them if they can help politely, they said, "Is your wife ___?" (my wife's name). "you need to talk to her about using 911 for life and death situations ONLY, and not to be so rude and vulgar."
Wow, that was a blusher.Like (2)

That could describe my youngest child. She has been the source of much joy, but also of much grief and heartache. She has caused her share of trouble at school, to the point where she could get suspended if she keeps up with her bullying ways. I have had social services at my door because of things she has done at school, and because one year she told someone I gave her beer, which is ridiculous, but they had to come out to make certain that wasn't the case. I told her, one more strike, and social services will be called to come pick her up and deal with her, because I can't do more than I'm already doing, and raising her all these years solely on my own has definitely taken its toll. My child needs the kind of intervention that I cannot give to her, the kind of help that surpasses the normal. I am a struggling single mother. I need help NOW, but since everything always comes down to money and health insurance only paying for the very minimal, I feel like she's doomed for a life of failure. I desperately need help with this child that I am not getting. I can't keep raising this child without any help at all. Perhaps someone else intervening and helping is exactly what she needs, but if I have to make that call to social services, it will be the hardest one ever.

If it persist (repeatition) then maybe a different approach is needed.. Try to let them solve it themselves and only step in at the last minute.Like (1)

Find a way to either curb their impulsiveness or plan a way to remove yourself from their sphere of effect.
