Someone here has got to have a good answer,please..... My 17 year old neice has had some big drug problems the past year and a half or so.She's tried to kill herself twice,both times slashing her wrists in front of my sister. She cleaned up for about a month,but has gone back to smoking meth,and her voilent outburst are coming alot more frequently. My daughter is a little older,and knows some of her friends.They said she would do whatever drug you put in front of her,no questions asked.This is scary to me,and I used to be into meth. She pretty much comes and goes as she pleases,gone for days,getting extremely wasted,wandering the streets at night,etc. We're in Nor Cal,and from what my sister says,until she really screws up again and the law gets involved,there isn't a damn thing they can do about her behavior. They've been dealing with her BS for almost 2 years now.She has attacked my brother in law with 2 butcher knives,and they only sleep with their bedroom doors locked.I fear for my sisters and brother in laws life(she is that crazy!) So what options does a parent have in this case? Kick her out is what I came up with.When they did this,she took E everyday for 2 weeks straight. Also she's a minor,so can you really kick her out? Can you make her go to a rehab if she doesn't/won't go? If you've got an answer,I want to hear it,if not,at least a ttt so maybe someone who does will see it. Thanks, Ritchie.
