[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 729683, member: 1550"] I am really sorry you are going through this. I put my daughter out once when she was doing drugs and she quit! You have two choices. Well, three if you just don't show up but unless you have a alarm system for your house she could break in anyway and maybe steal from you too. This is what I would recommend. Two possible options...two possiblilities. 1. Tell her that if she shows up you will take out a restraining order. You have to do it. A threat alone will not help. 2. Tell her she must tell you what she wants so that you can bring it to her at a busy neutral gas station and if she won't tell you what she wants then just tell her she will get her things only if you bring them...that she can not come in. Expect her to call you names. Don't give in. Disconnect contact if she gets mean. Get an alarm system. Druggies break into our homes and steal from us. Sadly, this includes our children. They are different people on drugs. Never fall for the common fear invoking but normally false story that unless she pays off a drug dealer the dealer will kill her. This is a common story they tell to get money from us to buy drugs for themselves. Sounds like she may be preparing to toss this one at you. Many a scared mom has given a kid thousands to get the drug dealer away from the kid when what really happens is she just bought her kid a boatload of drugs. Never give a drug user cash. Please take care of yourself. I assume your daughter is an adult. Don't let her abuse you. Seek help in therapy or Al Anon/Narc Anon. This is way too hard to do alone. [/QUOTE]
