Drop them with her and go out clubbing together.
She will be too emotional scarred after seeing her old man cloud chasing that she'll never do them again.
You however, might start buying clothes in fluoro colours and listening to tech.



[edit] or you could send them to Ben Cousins as a belated April Fools

Educate her. Let her know that you know and by no means approve but that you're also aware that you can't stop her from experimenting. Make sure she is aware of the dangers and to keep her fluid intake right up. Gather up all the info you can and go through it with her. If you go ballistic you'll just piss her off and drive her away.
Dreading when my kids get into this crap, it never killed me, but we danced along the cliff edge a couple of times.

Things have moved on from my time, just sit down and have a quiet convo.

Dont make a massive thing out of it, that will make things worse, much worse.

Just try and point out the dangers etc. The problem is if she wants to do it she will, I know back in the day if was told not too that would make me want to do it more. Stupid but true, I was a d!ckhead when I was younger.

You also went through her top draw.... teenages have big issues with trust and privacy.... can't say I know what to do in that situation.... best answer will come from someone who has been in exactly the same situation as you and acted, with either good or bad results.... don't envy you

Very wise.
sites like these are good to use. They give descriptions and a breakdown of what they do and subsatances they contain. Can be helpful information.

Might want to point out that they are illegal. You might not necessarily think they should be illegal, but our government, being the representatives of our society and country, has decided they are, etc. etc.

Laws: like forum rules, except for real life...

tell her friends parents and make sure they dont dob u in. Then her friends will get in trouble and you wont look like the bad guy. Also try and get her to get a new group of friends and she will change her habits. And if any of the pills there were white mitsubishis she is asking for death.

I think as far as your daughter's concerned, the bigger issue is that you were in her room and not only in her room, but going through her drawers. This will melt down into a trust/privacy issue far more important than the E's.

I think this will blow up whichever way you go about it, unless you have an extraordinary reason to be in her top drawer. The E thing will be a doddle compared to the mistrust.

Handle with caution!

Forget White Mitsubishis or any other kind
"Eccies" have not had any MDMA in them for a long while now as there is a major worldwide shortage. Most of them are amphet, or attempted amphet cooks gone wrong, Ketamine, all kinds of crap passed off as ecstacy.
None of them are safe

She needs to be told - really needs to - but how you are going to get past the fact you went thru her stuff I really dunno.
I like the friends parents being involved, make it sound like somebody has dobbed in the whole group maybe

Top draw? Who puts her washing away. Don't want to know the "usual" contents of the draw but isn't it unusual for kids of any age to put their own washing / stuff away?
"Hey I / the missus, was tidying up your room putting some stuff away and was just wondering..." Or something along those lines.

Take some photos on your phone, show your local chemist- see if he can supply laxatives or an emetic that look the same.
swap pills and let nature take its course.

But like "OK" said, advising her friends parents sounds like a good move too!

I too, am pretty sure 3 pills classes her as a dealer- and is an open invite for the police to trash your home.

Something to also check- I think as far as the law is concerned- as a dealers residence- you could (in theory) forfeit the house. This particular law is aimed at big time dealers- not dumb kids with a couple of pills- but drug dealing is going to look bad on a resume or stop a police clearance for a decent job or career.

If you happen to be a licensed firearm owner- and drugs are found inside your property- its almost guaranteed that you will face an expensive fight to get your firearms back.

In my opinion, the drawer you searched is in your property and you are responsible for what goes on in the property.
Any betrayal of trust was by your daughter when she brought illegal substances onto your property.
You would not have searched for the drugs without good reason, after all its your daughters welfare and health you are looking out for.

The bun fight is just beginning.
we had all our troubl with just 1 daughter, all the others got too freaked by it all.
but it can be sorted with time.
strangely it was the salvos that really got the peace making happening for us. and she is still with them and really doing good things in the world.
my main concern would be just what is in the pills..
the human thing can be sorted , but i have a brother in law that dabbled in a splif with angel dust and he has subsequently spent many years in state care

Exactly
Similar scenario, just wrecked a young lads life. Ended up with family member opening the door to a late night call to find some goon standing there with a pistol, advising 12 hours to pay a drug debt or your XXXX gets it in the head.

Get good help, and pay to get good help. Don't go short cut thinking you cant afford it and you can work it out, you cant, and you dont have the experience to do so. YOU cant afford NOT to get good quality help.!!!
The fools will tell you its all OK to dabble, its not, and it only takes one hit to send a person onto a nasty turn in life, destroying that person and all those associated with that person

Mate, if they're drinking and smoking, the chances of them already being exposed to weed, eccies or speed is there.
I've got a 3yo and one in the oven. I'm dreading the time when i've got to face this issue.
Not what i do/did but what i say

Does she plan on travelling overseas?
There is no drug diversion for Ecstacy like there is for Cannabis.

IF she gets caught with even one... She won't be going to USA, Japan or Canada... plus others!

She will be charged with Possess Prohibited Drug. (On a criminal record it does not states what drug)... but I'm sure there will be chatter about it after her job interview when they look at her Police clearance.

Geez - tough gig.

I used to rip out any newspaper stories on teeny girls who had just one tablet - their first - at a party with friends and ended up in a coma on life support - or worse, having a reaction and their friends too scared to call the cops and they died... and sit there whilst my then 14/15/16yo daughter would read them. Same with any news stories - particularly the ones with the parents speaking of their complete and utter devastation...

My daughter hit the grog a little hard on weekends at 16/17, but since then has calmed down at the ripe old age of 18yo...

Now I gotta start educating the boy...
