Question

My best friend is 15 years old and has a 4 year old sister and a 12 year old brother. Her uncle brought her some Alcohol and brought it to her house. Her mom also takes money from her friends and gives drinks to her daughter and her friends. I tried talking to her and she says she wont but I have been around this mess but have never done it....I know that once you start it is hard to quit.
she promises to stop but I am sure she is addicted judging by how much she has had. I dono what I should do to talk her out of this.She is my only friend and I dont wanna loose her.Also she is only 15 and hasnt even gotten her drivers permitt and her mom lets her drive to different places and one day it might mix, her drinking and driving, and her 12 year old brother usually goes with her and she is putting him in danger. I dono what to do.

Answer 1

Well, i am sure you don't want to ruin the friendship you have with her but what i would do is tell a police officer that you know so and so is supplying alcohol to a minor...Things will change when that happens...hope it doesn't ruin the friendship though. Good Luck This is a tough thing to deal with.

Answer 2

Obviously the child has had no parental guidance as it is her mother that is enabling her to drink and drive before she is of legal age. I admire you for wanting to help your friend, however it is going to be hard. It is legal in many states to serve your child alcohol in your own residence. I called the police on a neighbor of mine once and there was nothing they could do. You can be mean and the next time you know your friend is driving call the police. They can do something about that. If you are absoluetly positive that this is happening, then talk to someone like a guidence counselor or school nurse,
