I've always tried so hard with open communication with my dd 17 with regards to sex, drugs and alcohol. I've always told her she can come to me in trouble and I will help not judge.
I've recently found out she regularly smokes weed with her friends, as do "all her crowd". But I was relieved when she told me recently that she had tried regular tobacco and it just made her feel sick and she assured me that's one thing she wouldn't be doing.
Caught her driving off with a fag in her mouth this morning at 7.45am fgs. She's obviously desperate and completely addicted to be smoking at that time.
Her capacity for lying to my face hurts so much, but not as much as knowing what she's doing to herself with the weed and smoking. Moreover, she's announced she's off on a drugs weekend to Amsterdam with two girlfriends, paying with her own money and there's 'nothing I can do'.
Divorced from her dad who plays no part in her life and smokes himself so no joy there. Have the support of my dh but we're both out of our depth, feel like the worst parent ever.
Are there any wise ladies out there who have successfully come out the other end?
