 Becky, I feel for you but I also know what your parents are going through. I have a daughter that has been on the rollercoster of meth for over a year now. I did the same thing I kicked her out and then later she started coming back and doing her laundry, eating. The one thing that I refused to do was give her money. Right now we're at the point that she will not come over because I no longer allow her to smoke due to the fact that she has burned her three yr. old 2 times now since she has been in our custody. I can feel for your parents because I know what it is like to have a child that is an addict. They may be an addict but they are still your child and letting go is so hard to do. Give them time, they have to deal with this in their own time.

I may feel for your parents but I still agree with you. I think any kind of help is too much. Your sister will never hit her bottom if she has people helping her out, but your parents have to come to terms with this in their own time. Keep up your part, I believe that children do not need to be around anyone who is high. That is why our daughter is not allowed at the house if she is high or if I know that she has been hanging out with people who are using. I have also gotten to the point where I can tell her no and not let her walk all over me, it just took some time to get to that point.
