[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Got an ER bill today that was a surprise. I asked DD why she was in the hospital three weeks ago. She said, "oh, I got roofied but I'm OK and I reported it to the cops."

She seemed surprised at the cost of the bill.

I'm a little floored, and I'm not sure what to make of this. This doesn't seem like something you'd hide from a parent, is it? She's  being very cavalier, "no big deal" about it, says she wasn't sexually assaulted. And she's being very secretive -- when I asked for the name of the police officer or a copy of the report she said she didn't want me involved and would handle it. It seems more like she's hiding something, and she does have a long history of elaborate lying and obfuscation about her behavior as a teen. Apparently she posted a drunk TikTok from her hospital bed -- that isn't what being "roofied" does, right? I thought it shut you down, unable to move. She's a terrible liar and I'm getting a big whiff of bullshit on her story here...

WWYD? I realize college students do stupid shit with alcohol. But if she was actually in the hospital for alcohol poisoning or something, I'm going to make her pay the bill and there's no way she's taking the car to college next year.

Is that overkill?

You're an a$$hole. Of course you pay it. I was drugged in grad school (I had 2 drinks over dinner) by who I presume was one of the guy friends I was with (I have my suspicion). I never told my parents or really anyone. I was very, very sick and blacked out. I sort of realized their was a problem as I was NOT drunk or drinking heavily (and had a huge meal) and left all my stuff at the restaurant and (apparently, per my receipt) got home via cab. Last thing I remember was waking up in my apartment. It does happen.

Stop blaming her. Stop disbelieving her. Pay the god da---- bill. [/quote]
