[QUOTE="AmericanGirl, post: 556545"] Nancy, I am so very sorry you are facing this latest problem. Addicts are like little children. They see something, they want it. Doesn't have to make sense. Needs and wants are no different to them. No impulse control or conscious. Your daughter is not this person. The addict is in control. She has a conscious and morals. The addict doesn't. I looked into whether an arrest could hurt difficult child (third degree theft) and never found anywhere where the arrest would show. Only convictions. And those are iffy depending on how a background check is done and when the database is updated. Hoping that is the same where you are. I'm praying that this will be the event that causes her to accept her addiction and want recovery. Every month brings her some more maturity and hopefully, some more reasons to change. [/QUOTE]
