[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 157248, member: 3419"] Holy cow! I'm glad you're licensed and that you took your time answering the door until you had a plan. She had no idea she had fallen into expert hands--parents with-a difficult child who keep their cool. Way To Go!!!!! My husband brought home a drunk blonde when we were newlyweds. He got off work around midnight, then went for a run around the lake at 1 a.m.. It was -20 (in MN) and some drunk crashed her car into the frozen lake. He "rescued" her. Sigh. He came in and woke me up and told me to make her coffee and keep her comfortable because that's what his mother would do. Say what? She was a 20-something-bottle-dyed floozie in 4" spike heels and a leather miniskirt and faux fur coat--unbuttoned--and as I mentioned, it was -20. I told husband to call the police. Now that I'm older and wiser, I would have just gone into the bedroom, locked the door, and called the police on my own. But like a fool, I listened to him. We went through a similar procedure that you did, except it was dialing complete strangers and waking them up because she was too drunk to hit the dial correctly, and we finally got her boyfriend, who blew up on the ph and said he was coming to get her. It was more of a threat than a promise. She burst into tears and wailed and we felt awful because we thought that getting her a ride would be a good thing. Her boyfriend showed up with- another thug (one had a blk leather jacket and the other had cigs rolled up his sleeve--no coat--and they dragged her down the apt. stairs. I have no doubt that they beat her. Apparently this was the 3rd time she had crashed his car. After all these yrs, I still feel badly for not calling the police. People have no idea what a ripple effect their behavior causes when they step into others' lives. [/QUOTE]
