[QUOTE="ScentofCedar, post: 26541, member: 3353"] Sometimes I wonder how any of us lives through this. I am so sorry this is happening to you, Alice Lee. It has got to be breaking your heart. The only thing I would add to what the others have said is to tailor yourself a short message. (Mine for difficult child is "Don't use drugs." I say it to him everytime I talk to him, as many times as I can. And no, it doesn't always fit into the conversation!) Whatever you think is the root cause of what is happening to your girl, compose your message around that and tell it to her every single time you talk to or see her. None of us expected that it would ever come to where it did with our kids, Alice Lee. You did just fine. There is not a mother here who would not have sent those products, or a father who would not have taken them to work for his daughter. How does that old saying go? Something about using tampons with impunity but staying away from abusive males and drugs...? Or did I get that wrong? [img]:rofl:[/img] Barbara [/QUOTE]
