[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 707116, member: 1550"] My daughter used pot, meth, cocaine, psychpdelics and even smoked heroin twice. She was lucky to be afraid of needles so she never injected. She started at 12 (yes 12). We put her out at nineteen. She decided it was too hard to use and moved to live in another state with her brother to get away from those who knew her as a big druggie and wpuld mpt lieave her alone. She was lonely and had no friends as she lived in straight arrow brothers basement. She couldnt even light a cigarette or hed toss her put. She had to pay rent. She got a job at Subway and walked to and from work in Chicagos winter. She was promoted to manager, still no car. Had no car for years. Her brother was harder on her than us but she did not want to be homeless.she had to clean and cook for her hard working brother and his like roommates who rented rooms in sons home. She quit drugs including cigatettes and met a boy who was nice. She went back to college on grants and loans on her own dime. The two now own a home, have jobs and my granddaighter whlo owns my heart. They never party. They are good parents. We did not help her out once she blew it the last time and had to leave. No money. Nothing. She did it herself. Her brother was hard on her. I do believe tough love works best in most drug cases although some never get it. Mine did. It has been twelve years now. I cam hardly remember that girl who looked like death. My very happy story!!! [/QUOTE]
