My daughter is stealing money from me for her drug habit. I have been noticing for the past week now that money has been missing from my wallet. I watched my daughter (actually i spied) and saw her take 50$ from my purse. My daughter has been struggling with meth addiction for two years. She is sixteen years old, and we thought we were finally through with all this. But her addiction is still raging on . Last time we tried to put her in a rehab centre and she ran away. We're pretty sure she was prostituting during that time. i don't want my daughter out on the streets, but I can't let her keep doing drugs. Any suggestions?

You can acctually get her court ordered to go into rehab and get clean. try getting her to go to a narcotics anonymous (NA) meeting. she can not solve her problem untill she admits that her addiction is a deisease the has taken control of her life. I would know i was addicted to pain killers! no matter how hard someone tried to MAKE me get clean...i had to do it for myself. My BF was court ordered to go to rehab because he was huffing Ether and doing cocaine. He finally relized it was killing him and he wanted to get clean! we have both been clean for over 2 years! I think that you should talk to the juvenile court. also when you catch her stealing from you CALL THE COPS! also tell them about her prostituting herself. i know that it hurts so much to see your daughter go through this pain and suffering. She will cuss at you tell you she hates you and just be mean to you in general......but dont take it to heart...shes taking her inner pain out on you. Let her know how much you love her every single day!!!!!
GOOD LUCK

put your daughters azz in check, send her to bootcamo for a couple of weeks, take her to the maury show and let that guy show her what real life on the streets and jail is like! where she might end up. bootcamp may be tough for you to do for your own daughter but it would be tougher picking out her casket. i think if you cant control her put her azz to some one that can!

one thing you need to know is that you cant stop an addiction. i abused drugs for a few years and the main thing you dont want to do is be controlling at a time like this. she has to be ready and realize that she has a problem. this is a life lond battle once clean. talk to her when shes high, even though it will hurt. you talk to the most when your high and tell your true feelings. if she confesses that she needs help then go from there. im not saying leave her alone if shes not ready but please dont try to be to authoritative be there for her.

The hardest thing my mom ever did was let me sit in jail and pay for what I had done. The problem is not going to go away and apparently your daughter hasn't hit bottom yet. You are going to have to find a lockdown facility for her but she has to want to get clean and I don't think she is there yet. Someone once told my mom that I would either get clean or die. Jails, institutions and death are the only things she has in store for her. I wish that I could talk to her and let her know that the damage that she is doing to her brain and her body now, even when she quits is going to be permanant. Memory loss, both short and long term. Possible eating disorders in the future and the emotional problems that she is facing right now that she isn't even aware of yet that is probably why she is using. You have to be tough and love her through this. Call the police and press charges. Don't back down. Don't keep money in your pursse. Hide your ATM and credit cards because trust me she will take them. The disease of addiction escalates so quickly that neither her or you will see it coming. Speed freaks get the Speed Meanies and the become angry with the whole world and can become violent. They can't see that the drugs as being a problem. I speak from experience. I used for a long time--almost 15 years and I have a five years clean now. Write me back and I can give you ideas to use that may be emotionally painful, but in the end you can save her life. Don't give up and keep on her. It's the hardest thing as a mom you'll ever do.
