Should you say NO to having druggie BF?
| Wed, 10-11-2006 - 2:27pm |
Okay, I know that when you tell a teen they SHOULDN"T do something, they will often turn right around and do it? But can you draw the line when there is danger of being arrested? What if your DD wants to date a BF who is a known drug dealer in town? Can you just put your foot down and say No you are not going out with him?

I wonder if he is a drug dealer in the sense he knows how to obtain pot and may then pass it on to others his age(maybe with a bit of a price mark up)
That is not uncommom with high school and college age kids
Yeah, its illegal but I dont think we are talking about a 30 yr old dealing meth and cocaine

I think you are being unfair to op by making that statement. It just isn't that simple to tell teens they are forbidden to see someone. They will go behind your back, and if you don't believe that then I think you have bigger issues to deal with!
You are right I haven't been around long enough to know the other issues with your daughter. Sorry, but your post gave me a fright. As if this situation should be in any way ok. Now that I have read further I remember myself at 15 and attracted to the "bad boy" and he was pretty bad. I could have gotten into big trouble. When my parents met him, I could see that they did not like him one bit. Oh, good! They never said a thing to me and treated him nicely. Maybe even too nice. They smiled a lot. They called him "son". Yuck! After a while this wasn't so much fun anymore and it wasn't long before I saw him for the idiot they thought he was. I dropped him. I never said a thing and neither did they. It isn't easy raising a daughter, I have one of my own. Luckily I always liked her choice in boyfriends. Good luck and keep her safe.
