My baby sister (the epitomy of all that is good) is 16 and I recently discovered that she is taking drugs. I definitely definitetly confronted her about this but I know she's not going to listen to me. I found out the guy that sells it to her and phucked his face up pretty bad but I know she's still getting them from somewhere else. I'd do anything for my baby sister and my mom is a druggie herself. Dad doesn't give two shts. What to do?

You're a good guy for looking out for your sister like this - a really good guy. You can do two things. 1) Talk to your mom, I'm sure drugs have ruined your mom's life and so she's in the position to know. If your mom cares about your sister then she will tell her what drugs will do to her. 2) Take your sister into rehab, go to google and find out what you can do to get your sister back on track. Good luck!

I am very sorry for your sister and what you are going through. I know you want to kill every drug dealer you can get your hands on but that is only going to get YOU in trouble. Your sister has a problem that you can do nothing about if she doesn't want your help. Its extremely sad, but so true its heartbreaking. An addict is an addict until they decide to do something about it. You can get in touch with local Al-anon and they can point you in the right direction its a group for family members of addicts. I didn't care for it but some people embrace it, it might be for you. Also, so you don't get into so much trouble give the names of the dealers to the local narcs they might be able to do more than u. Sorry, just giving you my experience.

first of all eric, i wish i had a brother like you. all 16 yr old girls should have a brother like you....having said that, pls. don't mess yourself up because you are messing some drug dealers face up, he may hurt you or worse. i am so impressed that with all the strikes you have against you with family you clearly have a soul equal to a saint, i mean that. your sister may not seem to listen to you but i bet she hears more than you think. if there is a way you can get her to talk to a dependable adult (school councelor maybe) or some trusted adult, it could help. you are too young (i am assuming) to have all this crap on your plate. you need help with all this, i am sure there must be someone in your life who can help you with this, even a church, anyone who will listen. you need to be heard and helped. if you can go to narc. anonymous too they can help. you sound way to good and kind to be hurting, there are people who care, we don't get to choose our families...but if i could choose another brother for my daughter...you would be it. good luck to you and your sister...help is out there.

I know that you probably won't like this answer, but maybe you should go talk to the police about her situation. Look at it this way--what if she bought drugs from what turned out to be an undercover officer? Maybe if you talk to the police before that has a chance to happen, they could help you.

Bless your heart for caring so much and already making something out of your own life when you came from such mixed-up, messed up parents! My heart DEFINITELY goes out to you, young man...AND I am adding you to my prayer-list so regardless of what you believe, KNOW that someone out there will be praying for you and your loved-ones every single day! Sometimes in life, there's nothing WE CAN DO to alter another's behavior...and, this is a verry hard lesson to learn! How can we just stand back and DO NOTHING when someone we love is ruining their lives and making all the wrong decisions??? What happens when they just won't LISTEN to us?? It's hella frustrating, for sure! But nothing will change until they WANT AND DESIRE it for THEMSELVES! They have got TO WANT to change...we can NOT do it for them..they have got to for themselves! You can't MAKE anyone do anything!! They've got to want and desire it for themselves. I know, I know you wish you could! Just keep living your own life, making RIGHT decisions and MAKE SOMETHING OF YOURSELF!!! You'll be a true influence in their lives later...something they can look at and say, hey! He made something out of HIS life....so can I!! Be an EXAMPLE and don't EVER GIVE UP!! And hey! If you EVER need someone, e-mail me!

your sister should be glad to have someone like you around. but what is she dabbling in?
I think most people experiment with drugs, then grow out of it, hopefully.
I have done the same, then I grew up.

just be there when they really need you, because eventually they will need you, and that's about all you can do for now...
