signs of drugs? or just me thinking that?

if so, how do you confront them?

first of all i hope the people that answered this first comes back :)

but anyways..
im the younger sister that is noticing this
and if i tell my mom she either
a)wont believe me
b)bring it up at the worst possible time
or
c)she wont do anything and just blow it off

my guess for this is c.
because she is going through problems of her own
the only way i can bring it to attention is by me confronting her

Answer 2

Definately, im only 20 i been there done that.. I can guarentee there drug use goin on in there. Most likely Pot cuz thats what people use the towles for. I know from experience..

Confront them? How to do it? Thats a tough one because i have no idea how i would do it if i was you. You just need to find out if there is drugs for sure first.. hell their kids right? go through their rooms, your the parent here not them.. the worst they'll do is get mad and then get over it in the long run.

Answer 3

Ok I have had a little bit experince with this. My husband at one time used to be on medicinal drugs very very dangerous. And even the time earlier than we met he informed me the whole thing he has performed... that is loopy however..... If they cant sit down nonetheless and all that it's deff. whatever that makes them velocity. But there are a couple of matters that may do this. Coke... which u snigger u most of the time sneeze plenty or continually have the sniffles however u too can snigger tablets and feature the identical part outcome. Crack continues u up for days thats why humans lose plenty of weight after which there may be meth i dont recognize to so much approximately it however it has one-of-a-kind part results on humans. Dont recognize to so much approximately heroin however it does the types of matters u defined above but when they're consuming on best of what they're doing it might be whatever. I wish i helped. Im sorry I dont recognize to so much.

Answer 4

If your mom won't listen, I think you had better do something. I know it's scary, but you have the well-being of your family to think of. Drugs can truly mess up their lives, and maybe yours too.
Next time you see the signs of drug use (2 closed doors, towel, lights off) call the police and tell them drugs are being done. I hope they will come in time to find something.
By the way, don't handle the drugs yourself. That could make it look like they're yours.
Once they are caught, they will have to get some help.

Answer 5

the towel alone is not only a sign, but a sign of more serious drugs. most likely a pot head cant even think of the towel idea.
