I have even told her friends that if they ever get in a situation and drink too much that they can call me and I will give them a ride home or if worse case scenario they know their parents will get mad that they can come here and crash for the night...I am trying to be understanding while biting the bullet if you know what I mean...This is totally against my character...I was a "Goody two shoes"...never did drugs ect...I don't want her to think I think it's ok and yet I want to provide her and her friends a safe place to go when the going gets tough...I have found that there is a medium between mothering and being a friend...and we are taking it day by day...but she is going to do it rather I like it or not...
It's time for me to step up and help her to make adult decisions as her friend...I just don't want this guy to disuade her from going to college...:-)

Good attitude and a sensible line to tread. It's always hardest for the goody two shoes - like my old man - to deal with it
