[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 746977, member: 1233"] Often the drugs are a symptom of not being able to handle society appropriately. Not because you were not taught, or raised right, but because for some reason you can't. You seek out drugs to avoid your feelings and problems. Being clean just means you have the world, and all of your old problems, to cope with. Without learning to deal with the problems, you are usually a very toxic person. Plus your development is stuck at where you were when you started using. This means your 30-something year old daughter has the same ability to deal with the world that an immature 13 year old does. It can be just awful to have to deal with a person who is so socially immature and unable to cope. Or it could be that she isn't clean but is saying she is clean. That happens too. Either way, do what you can to make sure your granddaughter knows that you still love her, and that she can contact you if she has a need or want to contact you. You are a wonderful grandma to have raised the little ones so lovingly. [/QUOTE]
