[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 610549, member: 15801"] I think you have a hard balancing act to do.... be open to talking to her, listen to what she has to say, and do not overreact!!! At the same time be cautious with your eyes open. I think the fact she is doing well in school, has a job etc is a huge plus and you want to encourage all of that so she keeps it up. If she is feeling good about herself and her accomplishments she will be less likely to turn to drugs. I think offering her some therapy and help is a good idea. I think I would hold off on pushing rehab... because in rehab they meet plenty of others who are into harder core stuff and you might want to hold off on that at the moment. I dont have any real answers since my difficult child is a complete mess which you will see if you read any of my posts. TL [/QUOTE]
