It's the most drastic thing I have ever seen.

The sad part is if you knew the family you'd realize it can happen to anyone. A normal, middle class family. Mom Dad 2 daughters. He has his own business and while not rich does well enough. Nothing in her past raised a flag.

I still can't get my head around it. I went over to cheer my friend up after her back surgery and listened to about two hours of this. Tragic.

They can't let their daughter in their house because she will steal anything she can. She's wacked out 5 days a week and then sleeps 2 days straight. She's now about 90 lbs. and looks like hell. She used to be cute as a button...

With her age, they can't actually do anything, but dad was tempted to call the cops in and get her and felon boyfriend busted. That's how bad it's got in 1 year.
It's so bad They'd rather see their youngest daughter in jail than cranked out and stripping for more drug money.......

But they haven't gone that route...I thank God I'm not in those shoes.

I'm going to pray everyday that our little granddaughters will have money to go to a private Christian school when they are that age. I know, it's not an absolute guarantee they stay out of trouble but it's a probability thing. You know, I have noticed that when kids from a local Christian high school are in McDonalds they are the quietest, most polite teenagers I have ever seen -- much better behaved than I was at that age! On the other hand, when kids from the public high school go to the same restaurant I usually have to leave due to the noise and vulgarity.

Prayers for your friends as well...

That may be the only way to see her live as opposed to killing herself before everyone's eyes.

Counsel your friend to save some time, pain, and maybe a life or two. Find a payphone and drop a dime. At least having her in prison would slow things down a little.

It stinks, but her life expectancy probably isn't real good at this rate.
