[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 137851, member: 1233"] Well, you can let it go and not bring it up again. Or you can call the school and report her as truant. Or maybe you need to call the police to report her as truant. I would drug test her. Just a hunch, but it often goes with this, at least from what I see on the board. There are over the counter drug tests, also, at least here, the pediatrician will do a drug test. If you take her to the doctor, ask them to get a sample for a urinary tract infection - or make sure they tell HER that. THEN have them run the drug test. She is 17. Her grades should be her problem. If she won't go, then of course nothing should be paid for prom or ANY extracurricular. Do you have a list of house rules and the consequences?? Is not going to school on the list? If not, add it. Your house, your rules, you can change them anytime. Any chance she is pregnant? Yet another thing the doctor can test for from a urine sample. I don't know the best way to go. I would make sure all extras above used clothing 2 times a year, food (nutritious, NOT what she likes), and a room with a mattress are all she has. IF you want to pull out the big guns, that is. This is what foster kids get, so it must be OK. Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
