[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 674288, member: 19522"] Hi A dad, I am not even sure what the process would be. There are other resources available as well. It depends on where folks are living.I am just saying there is a safety issue for AWS daughter and her family, with the crowd she is running with. Maybe there is a drug hotline, with knowledge of the area, where she can get advice and suggestions on what to do. It is difficult to do anything, AWS if your daughter chooses to run with this sort of people. I would definitely suggest, helping your mom to be safe. My eldest is involved with some very shady types, and didn't think anything of bringing them around our home. This was and is one of the reasons we cannot have her here. Aside from the reality that we cannot help her, by trying to help her. I called the police, when our home was broken into, and I am pretty sure, my daughter was the culprit. When I did this, she hightailed it out of here. It is sad, we can't force our d cs to make better choices. We can involve authorities to try to ensure our safety. In the long run, I think it is worth a try, to get information and some kind of direction. This is potentially a very dangerous situation as evidenced by this statement.... Did she get police involved over this AWS? How is she protecting herself? I agree, drug life is very dangerous. People high on drugs commit acts [I]they [/I]never would imagine, or their families would never imagine. This hit home hard for me, a few years back, a young man I had coached who was troubled at 13, involved with pot that escalated to meth, ran with the wrong crowd, lived with his grandmother. He attended college. Grandma was trying to help him. In a meth induced psychosis, he ended up hurting his grandmother. I am not saying your girl could be capable of this, but it does happen. I do not know her choice of drugs. My daughter still does not admit to her meth use. She has all kinds of confabulated stories. She even faked working, getting up in the morning, leaving the house as if she was working. This went on for awhile. I do know, when I see her, her mood swings go from incredible highs, to extreme lows. AWS, do you know what drugs your daughter is involved with? Copa is right, this is not [I]your failure[/I]. We all have run the gamut of these kinds of feelings. It is natural to grieve over our d cs choices. They are just that, [I]their[/I] choices. Is your mom trying to protect your girl, from living with these dealers? This is a concern, and dangerous territory. People involved in dealing, are not nice people. Please forgive my strong message, and repeating myself, but the [I]drugs and guns.....scary, scary stuff.[/I] I truly hope that you are able to find some solutions AWS. This is a very tough place to be in for your family. I am very sorry for these troubles. You are not alone. (((HUGS))) leafy [/QUOTE]
