[quote=Anonymous]Does your DD's school have a counselor?  Was your DD in contact with that person?  Could you contact that person?

Have you contacted the parents of DDs friends to get to know them?  Are you confident that there is responsible oversight when she goes to friend's houses?

Do you require your DD to apprise you of where she is and who she is with?

Does your DD have responsibilities and expectations to meet at home?

Do you have regular family meetings to discuss issues that have come up in your household?

I will echo some of the advice you have gotten here.  I would recommend meetings with a therapist, because you are concerned about changes in your DD's behavior, appearance, and grades.  Those are indicators of some kind of stress, maybe even trauma (bullying or sexual assault, for example).  You might want to consider therapy for the family as a whole.

Good luck, OP.  As someone whose DD is currently in residential treatment, I will add that there are a lot of good treatment options out there--all VERY expensive, to be sure, but necessary in some instances.[/quote]
