[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 369832, member: 1233"] Gather up everything that you suspect has been used to hold drugs or to use them. Here if they find a plastic bag or tube they test it for residue. If any residue shows up you get arrested. Put the items in a secure place that difficult child cannot get into. Call the doctor and ask for a drug test, or get one at the drugstore (our Walmart carries them but you have to ask for them) or wherever. If she won't do the test or go to rehab call the cops and give them her paraphernalia. Refuse to let the other girl into your home, or, if you are devious, wait until the next time the girl is over and call the cops to come raid them. Talk about a rude awakening for them both, and the other girl's family. Ignoring this will just make it worse. You need to start going to al anon or narc anon ASAP. You will get a LOT of support there and many ideas for how to best handle the problem. It hoovers that the only decent, cooperative behavior you have seen from her in a long time is due to abuse of drugs. PLEASE get some help in dealing with your resentment of her. It is natural to feel that way but in the long run it will only hurt you. If not al anon or narc anon, find a therapist to help you. How you handle this WILL affect your relationship with your other child. [/QUOTE]
