[QUOTE="graceupongrace, post: 414696, member: 7371"] Jena, I'm so sorry you're going through this heartbreak on top of everything else. I know how painful it is, believe me. I would encourage you to call the police, though. They won't necessarily do anything at this point, but it's important to establish a paper trail showing you're doing everything you can to keep her safe. This is especially important with difficult child and your stepkids in the home. You don't want to be accused of "letting" easy child run wild, stay out all night, etc. when she's still technically a minor child. Obviously that isn't true, but you know what I mean? Reporting her missing is also a natural consequence. As troubled as she is, she still needs to understand that when she fails to control herself, others -- including the police -- are likely to step in and control her. I also would start calling her friends' parents. Keep us posted. We care. (((Hugs.))) [/QUOTE]
