Anyone awake for advice on drunk teen

Dd is 16 years old. Have collected her from a party with 3 friends at 11:30. They all appear quite sober but she has obviously been drinking. She has climbed straight into bed where the rest of the girls are chatting an hour and half later. I’ve gone in and roused her several times and she is quite stroppy but has responded and had a few sips of water but denied drinking alcohol but has quickly gone back to sleep. I’ve tried to persuade her to sleep in spare room with me but she is getting very cross and won’t budge. Not sure what to do. If she was here by herself I would sleep on her floor to check on her. I am feeling really stressed that she might vomit while asleep. Currently sitting on the landing in a panic.

Sure she hasn't smoked a joint? It would be pretty normal for the ones who do it more regularly to not be affected much.

Sorry her friends all seem sober apart from her.

prop her on her side with a pillow behind her back and rolled forward enough to put a pillow under the top leg (which is somewhat crossed over to help stabilize you in the side lying position).
depending on how much she "didn't" drink she may need to empty her bladder while still wobbly and needing help.

If she appeared quite sober like you said, she won’t be drunk enough to worry about her choking on vomit

Sorry, I just et read and I think you mean her friends seem sober but she is drunk. My advice would still be the same at this point.

You could check that she’s asleep on her side and if she is then she should be ok.

Bobbie12345678 · 01/09/2025 01:23

I would leave her to it at this stage. I think the choking on vomit is if someone is paralytically drunk. You said she didn’t even seem drunk? And it has now been several hours.
Politely, I think you are massively over reacting and need to get a grip. Go to bed.

Just let her sleep.
