[QUOTE="JMom, post: 680176, member: 19892"] Good morning ST, If you do find that she's using drugs, please use some of that money to repay yourself for what she has cost you. I live in Texas and agree child support is up to 18 in my state and is for living expenses. The money now would be used for more bad choices now. If we are fortunate to be wrong about drugs she's needs a good old fashioned spanking for being such a big turd.... If she is using drugs, this could be a very good place to allow natural consequences of her addiction (i.e. loss of money and parental involvement. I promise you 100% when the consequences fall on her, rather than you reality will soon set in. If you suspect substance abuse, perhaps you can give family who may enable. They might want to avoid giving her money as well. You can't control other's, but I found that my ex-husband appreciated me telling him when my son was using. Things got worse quick once everyone knew that he was making bad choices and cut off the money supply. My kid lives in a tent for 3 months, bit he's now sober and going through a homeless program to apply for college.. on his own. I only say that to give you hope. It seems like you're in limbo on what to think. Take care of YOU in the meantime. You will need your strength. [/QUOTE]
