[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't bother. In college they will do even more drugs than ever, so even if you could stop it now temporarily, it will resume later this year and your daughter will have had a whole lot of unwanted drama. So, lost cause. You focus on her.[/quote]

This.  You don't want to jeopardize the relationship you have with your daughter.  The chance of you exposing the heavy drug use and the parents handling it appropriately with no ugly fallout is pretty low.

Also, and this is [b]not a [/b]very politically incorrect to say, but the parents likely have their heads in the sand and don't want to know.  I cannot imagine one of my teenagers experimenting with coke and heroine and not having any idea.  As the sister of an addict who has met many people through Nar-Anon, I can tell you that there is a lot of blaming the messenger that happens when this sort of thing comes to light.

If you expose this, don't necessarily expect receptive and appreciative parents, and be prepared to be part of whatever fallout ensues.
