ever since my parents have divorced and me and my 2 sisters and my brother have moved to LA my youngest sister (7th grader) has been acting older then she is she can definally pass to be about 16 but that never mattered much in NY but here she is hanging out with girls that were to much make up and not enough cloths. Shes learned how to dirty dance and is making out with tons of guys. She is never home nemore and she looks like a whore when ever she goes ne where! like this morning: she came home around 2am this morning no one new where she was er any thing and when she got in she was wearing a black mini and a hot pink holter top. she was wasted and she had on so much make up that when she took it off she went through 13 clearisel pads! what should i do? she is so smart and pretty but now shes acts stupid and is flunking school!

Drinking at such a young age leads to binge drinking for most of your life. Have you tried talking to her? Maybe you and you sister could spend some time one on one and just talk about things.
