[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 286950, member: 1233"] Call the police. Every. Single. Time. If she runs away, if she sneaks out, if she has drugs, if you find drugs in the house. Whether husband wants it or not. Different places handle the calls to the police differently. MOST will ask you if you will let her stay in the house. I gave my oldest one trip to a long term psychiatric hospital, two acute psychiatric hospital stays, and two calls to the cops. The third time I called the cops because he was assaulting me or one of his siblings my answer was NO. He can NOT stay here. They were not happy. I refused to have him on the property. I was smaller than he was, and disabled. husband works long hours 90 minutes away. My other kids should not have had to tolerate as much as I did allow. But that is how I felt. And what I was personally prepared to do. Decide what you will tolerate. Where the breaking point is. Do not EVER tell any of the kids or husband that you will do something unless you will follow through 150%. 100% is not always enough with our kids. At this point you need to let adult boyfriend and his mommy know you intend to press statutory rape charges if he so much as speaks to her again. If they are together somewhere?? Call 911 and tell them that she is in danger of statutory rape by someone who has already done it to her before. She is probably too young to give legal consent for sex. If he is convicted then he will spend the rest of his LIFE as a registered sex offender. Make SURE you stress that to him and his mother - and stress it hard. If this guy gives her weed? Or any other drug, even DXM (dextromethorphan - a cough suppressant that is OTC and becoming a HUGE problem)? That you will have him charge with contributing to the delinquency of a minor and with distribution. if he does this stuff at school, such as gives her a ride or picks her up? BONUS!!! He gets a tougher sentence if it is at a school!!! Make sure thatEVERY SINGLE one of her friends knows you will have them charged with whatever illegal stuff is going on also. You want to scare them all away from them. Call the other kids' parents. Let THEM know that their child is hanging around with a drug user and/or sharing drugs with your daughter who is using. I hope you can find treatment for her very soon. Many hugs. [/QUOTE]
