[QUOTE="Albatross, post: 703527, member: 17720"] Donna, welcome and sorry you had to find us. I am sorry you are facing this alone, Donna. That must be very difficult. You certainly should not come home to the chaos she brings. Your home is your sanctuary, and your daughter is an adult. You don't owe her anything. If anyone "owes" anything, I think it is your daughter who owes you the respect a mother deserves, especially a mother who has tried so many times to help her child break the grips of an addiction. It is heartbreaking, but it sounds like your daughter took your kindnesses as an easier path for her and assorted hangers-on to have a place to use and sell drugs. It is not good for her and certainly unacceptable for you to have her in your home, Donna. It is SO HARD to say no, because as parents we tend to focus on their potential. We see them as innocent children, or young graduates ready to take on the world. They are sadly not those people anymore, especially when drugs are doing the talking. Others will be along to offer advice, but I wanted you to know that I am reading along. You will find much great support here. Keep reading and posting. It helps. [/QUOTE]
