Do you have advice or answers regarding this situation with my runaway daughter - this is long - sorry?

I sympathize greatly with you. The first thing is you should know that drugs do drive people mad and they cannot control themselves- they feel they cannot live or there is no meaning to their life without these drugs, this is no doubt what has happened to your daughter. Relationships between mother and daughter can be strained- god knows I fight with my mother all the time, and you never mean to, nine times out of ten you just do not want to accept that they might be right and they might be talking some sense. As a teenager you just want to take control of everything.This is not your fault. Your daughter probably wants to get away from you because you take her away from the thing she loves- and that is drugs. Sad as it is, it's the truth. And i know you mean well. No body would want their daughter to do drugs. She is doing this to hurt you- revenge. That's the truth. You hurt her (unintentionally but this is from her perspective) by taking away her drugs and the only thing she can take from you in revenge is herself. As she grows older, she will realise her mistake- 13 is an immature age, you want to rebel and you want to hurt your parents by bringing home random boys and flirting and wearing short skirts so your parents get upset and annoyed. This family will soon give up on her and she will learn that the only person who truly loves her and wants the best for her is her mother- you. You should have tried councelling. I used to have it and it''s strange because it makes you look forward to it. Someone who understands you and will not argue with what you say, even if it's wrong or horrible they just listen. And that makes things better at home because you have said what you need to say without it building up inside of you, and therefore you can calm down and your relationship with your parents cools down. When she comes back to you, she will no doubt be more mature and understanding and she will listen to you. Yeah she might have a child, she may have done terrible things, but you can help her move on from that and you can give her all the support you can. All the best to you x
