[QUOTE="bran155, post: 238988"] Wheeew!!! Hello and welcome. I am so sorry you have gone through this hell!!! I can relate to some of what you are dealing with. My daughter is similar in that she has no remorse she just keeps wanting more. She also has been on the run, beat up, drugs, crime, violence in the home and so on. I, like you have done everything humanly possible to save her from herself. All to no avail. She is in the county jail right now for stealing my debit card. It has been hell here for the past five years. I too will be faced with the same dilemma. If the court doesn't place her then I will be forced to make the decision to let her come home or put her on the streets. I have come a long way, I am detaching a bit more everyday. I do not want her to live here anymore, but am afraid of what will happen to her out there on the streets. I like what MidwestMom and C.J. said. There would be no chance that I would allow my daughter to bring anyone home to live, especially a boyfriend!!! I have learned a lot from this site and the one thing that is now embedded in my brain is that WE cannot change our children no matter what we do. They make choices.

I only hope that I will be strong enough to put that into motion when needed. I might allow my daughter back in my house with all of the stipulations that C.J. mentioned. Believe me I know how hard this is. You are a good mother and you clearly have done all you can for your daughter. Her life will only change if and when she wants it to. (((HUGS))) God bless.
