what can you do apart from compromise on some ground rules about the days she goes out, where she goes, who with, what she is doing...etc...
all you can do is teach her to be safe and try your best to teach her good morals.
i have 2 young daughters and am dreading this time..
good luck

Explain the dangers of drugs, tell her if she hangs out with whatever kind of people she will be judged by others that she is the same as them.
Ask her does she want to be known as a druggie, a drunk or worse, a girl can be called names a guy can't. These are things I have told my daughter, I encouraged her to get a part-time job so she has money to go to pictures and things. Also I let her chat on msn but I do monitor her and she has her own bebo and piczo pages which have taken time to build. None of this may be of any relevance but find things for her to do that's not hanging about.

That's normal. Afterall you are very boring, embarrassing, uncool and don't understand her!! etc etc That's if yours is like mine. Only has energy for getting away from me not for tidying her room! I think it helps to try and have some structure, use a calendar. Insist she shares meals with you so you can both talk over what you have been doing. Try and schedule in 'family time' when you go out together and do something you all like. Insist on knowing where she is with and that she returns at set times so you can trust her.
It's tough and they only grow up by growing apart from you for a while!

I had teens.. they are grown now. I set rules and stuck to them. My children started working at the legal age for work. They earned their own money to spend when they decided to go out. Lots of times they were too tired to go anywhere.. therefore solved my problem of them being gone all the time. Even when they were working.. they also had chores to do at home (like cleaning their rooms and their own personal bathroom) From time to time... they helped with laundry, with the dishes and some cooking. I felt that if they were going to grow into an adult and they wanted to so very badly.. then they would have to act as an adult and have to do some work before the play (like the real world). Before my kids were of the legal age to work.. then I gave the one day of the week and one day of the weekend for them to go out. They may have begrudged it.. however I will have to say.. now I have some great responsible kids. Good luck.

set limits and give her a cerfew. And pray that she remembers everything you have tried to teach her. Make sure she has a cell phone with her when she leaves. She want,s to go out and test the waters and if she falls down , you can pick her up , dust her off and let her try again.

this is going to sound loopy, despite if it may artwork. My cousin and his buddy use to do the comparable area of me whilst we've been youthful. They saved coming in the bathing room whilst i exchange into in the bathe. So, I jumped out of the bathe thoroughly bare. the lads stood there in ask your self for a minute in the previous working away. yet they by no ability peeped on me lower back! attempt it, it may scare him :)

This is a tough one, i have 3 teenage sons and dread what they are up to but it all boils down to trust, you can't keep them locked up 24/7, talk to her and explain your concerns i do it with my lads i tell them if they want to mess their future up then that's up to them, i try to guide them where i went wrong. As parents we get worried and concerned that's only natural, maybe you could compromise with her. Good luck.

Set her some boundries. She can go out as long as she tidies her room and comes back at a certain time.

Get to know her friends-they may well not be as bad as you believe, it is easy to think the worst of people when you feel someone you love is vulnerable and you do not know what is going on. Don't ever let discussion with her close down-be available.
(I know it's easy to sit here and write this................)
