Resolved Question: My 13 year has turned out to be a trouble-maker!?

26/02/11

My 13 year old is out of hand , her attitude is poor and her respect lacks. Her behaviour is so bad that she now has 1 hour detention every day after school for a week! The way she speaks to people is rude and talks to them like dirt. I am trying to discipline her by doing a few things , here are some punishments:
.Yesterday I took her laptop out of her room , the tv and every luxury that is in her room , including make up , ipad,ipod, playstation and every other technology that she enjoys using.
. I stripped her bedroom down , the only things that are there is her bed , a rug and her wardrobe with no expensive clothing in it!
. Her phone has been taken away and she is banned from using the internet, she can only use it for educational reasons.
. I now take her to school in the morning and make sure she goes into school.
. My best friend picks her up from school and take her home , she is grounded after school and has to stay in her room. My best friend keeps an eye on her so she does not get out of her room.
.I make sure she does ALL her homework , also she is banned from going out with her friends and I am not buying her ANY thing till she changes her behaviour.
. I make her go to her nan’s house on weekends and help her out , she lawns the garden and does all the chores.
.I have made a chore chart and she does it after school.

Do you think my punishments are too harsh and am I being to strict on her , or is this a good punishment for her so she changed her behaviour for good.

Ps: If you are not going to give me any advice and make snide remarks , then I advice you to not say anything.
