I see so much of me in my 14 year old daughter every day. She is a drug addict. And pot seems to be her favorite thing to smoke. I started using when I was 12. Her first drug ever was when she was 5 when her older brothers thought it would be funny to shoot heroine up her arm. Since then she has been sneaking drugs behind my back. I took her to a juvinile rehab today, and told her "that's it." But I don't want to give up, I feel like such a loser, and I won't lie, when I find pot in her pocket when I am doing the laundry, I want it, I want it really bad, but then I tell myself that I am a father and a role model to my daughter, and I flush it. But I want her to be healthy becasue she has cronic athsma, so on any puff, she could have an athsma attack and could die. She is also too thin for her age. she is 5'2 and weights in at 70 pounds. I really hope that this rehab will help her. I don't want to have to see her come home every day with dialated pupils.
any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks for listening,

I mean what kind of mother does that right? I always said I would take it to the grave I would never let my kids find out because I desperatly do not want them to do any type of drugs. I guess none of us really know what we'd do in a situation until it arises but I do believe if any of my daughters ever needed me to be honest about it to help them in thier recover I would. My advice, be honest and open with your daughter and hopefully she'll be able to learn from your mistakes instead of repeating them. (god i'm so hipacritical)
Take care. And best of luck to your daughter with her treatment. Oh and I also have an eating disorder. Sounds like your daughter may have a problem with it too. She's in my thoughts.
