[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry for whatever happened to your daughter and that there isn’t enough trust there for you to know what to believe.  I’d focus on trying to support her and maybe at some point she’ll open up more about it.  If not, I don’t see how you can force it (and she may be more secretive the more pushy you get).

I grew up with a very judgmental mother who also panicked about everything, which often made things worse. I was a good, responsible kid but I really didn’t necessarily feel comfortable opening up to my mom about certain things.

I had excellent grades yet like many inexperienced teenagers with newfound independence, made some dumb decisions in college. I drank too much generally, and one time participated in a stupid game where a few of us mixed cough medicine with alcohol.  I ended up basically tripping on Robitussin and had to be hospitalized.  I was completely embarrassed and never said a word about it to my mother (my biggest fear was she’d see the hospital bill and find out).

Anyway, I hope everything will turn out okay. Not everyone is ready to share, even if they aren’t hiding something, so just be supportive and let her know you are there for her if she needs you.  Even if she has a history of fabricating, it’s possible she made a poor decision and something bad happened that still isn’t her fault.  You don’t want to push her away.[/quote]
