17 YEAR old DD first job

Tell her to just get a note from the practitioner who prescribed the drug... if she's telling you the truth.

Has she lied to you before? This has got to be resolved, OP. Hugs. Parenting is very tough work.

But she told me she didn't tell them she took Adderall for her ADHD.. is it true if she fails to tell them that she fails the drug test?

What she failed is the intelligence test.

Lesson learned for next time: disclose your meds beforehand.

When I was in college I worked for a grocery store that drug tested all employees upon hire, and then reserved the right to test again at any time. For example, I know one woman who got injured on the job and they made her take a drug test (she passed.)

I remember when I was tested, I was asked to list ANY medications I had taken in the last 30 days--even over the counter stuff like tylenol or cold medicine.

I'm surprised they didn't ask your daughter to do the same--or if she did, why she didn't tell them about her prescription medication.

Anyway, at this point, I agree with some of the previous posters that by not disclosing she was taking a prescription medication BEFORE the test was done, she appears to not be very responsible and the management will probably not want her as an employee.
