see the thing is my sister already told them that she is uding DRUGS, they know this, they just don't know that it is meth. I am not lying to them and saying that she isn't using meth, I have actually hinted to them that that is what it is. I haven't denied anything. I just haven't come out and said "Hey mom/dad she is using METH!" how important is it for them to know what the drug is at this point? She/sister has atleast confided in them that she is an addict, she is coming around to telling them. My sister is at this point still talking to me b/c she knows that I haven't given her any reason not to trust me.I don't want to lose that connection that we still have, I want her to feel that she can still come to me when she is ready to really quit. that is why I haven't said the actual name of the drug. should I give it a little more time to see if my sister tells them on her own? It was a huge step for my sister just telling them that she was addicted. I know people say that 'ommiting the truth is still telling a lie' That is and isn't true. it is true if my parents were to ask me "Melody is she using meth?" and me saying 'no' or 'I don't know'. they haven't asked me that. I am not trying to defend me or my sister b/c I know that she is the one that caused all this, none of us had anything to do with all this crap we are going through now. It was a choice she made. I know all this. I just want to be able to have her feel that she can trust me. That is where I need some insite. Do you see what I am asking now? I am sorry if I was vague in my earlier posting.
