[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 139286, member: 3626"] Your daughter is making some stupid mistakes, no question, but I'm not sure she's the one to blame for this one. She obviously needs help and, sadly, a lot of what she's doing is not the unusual for teens. Your sister and brother in law went over the top for a simple question. You had a right to know if their son had agreed to help your daughter get alcohol. If he had, he needed to know how wrong it was. If he hadn't, you needed to know so you could bring this up to your child's therapist and whomever else is involved. For them to start screaming at you, at her, to have your sister refuse to talk to you is on them, not you, not your child. Why your husband blames God for this is beyond me. I can only imagine his pain. Have you considered an Residential Treatment Center (RTC) for your daughter? Getting her away from her friends and into a structured environment that will give her some tools to help her may be the best thing for her. It's not an easy thing to do and it can feel like you're failing your child, but it may be the only way to save her. I'm sorry you're hurting. Hopefully, your sister will come around. I'm sure this is hurting her, too. [/QUOTE]
