[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is extremely serious, OP.

You MUST deal with it. You have to explain that: 
1. Stealing is a crime. She cannot do that ever again.
2. Reselling drugs is a crime. She cannot do that ever again.
3. ADHD stimulants are a controlled substance and make 1 and 2 even worse. 
4. She made her parent extremely miserable for a week. Would she be happy if her parent was incapable of working and was fired, leading to her having even less money to play with than she thinks she does? Would she be happy if you were so distracted you got into a car accident and died?

Really make her feel bad about this. Lay it on thick.

And then consequences: grounded for a month. No fun at all. Get a new lock for your meds with new code.

And when the consequences have really begun to sink in... this is when you play nice and ask what's going on in her life to make her act that way. Hopefully nothing too dire.

It’s probably much worse than this.  I am very sorry, OP.[/quote]
