Mom sells Drugs and i want to go live with my brother
Question Posted Monday September 1 2014, 3:12 pm
I am 16 I have known my mom has been selling prescription pain killers for sometime now. She says she is doing it for me but she seems to be doing it more for herself when she just bought herself a new car. I'm between a rock and a hard place reporting it though because my mom currently has cancer and found out I was planning on reporting her for it, she said go for it but its her word against mine and she says I have no evidence against her. Well she showed me where she hides them, I know where she goes to get them every month and the first name of the person she sells them too. So I need to know how should I word it to report it. If I should tell the DEA or crimestoppers or who. And what will happen to me and my dad since we have known about it for sometime, what will happen to my dad because I dont wanna live with him either, and if I can go live with my brother then since he's willing to take me in or if CPS will put me into a group home or foster home.
It's impossible to say exactly what would happen if CPS got involved. Their first choice would certainly be your Dad, but if that wasn't possible, there is no saying exactly where you might end up.
Rather than take the complex and difficult path of reporting your mother's crimes (which of course, she shouldn't be doing) you might take the simpler path of simply asking your brother if you can move in with him and letting your parents know that is what you'll be doing. So long as you are safe there with him, attending school, and your parents know where you are at, the police are actually unlikely to force you back home from an older siblings home.

I honestly don't think you shouldnt report your mother. She loves you and is possibly doing this because she feels this may be her only option. Talk to your mother about.not saying that it's wrong but simply saying how it affects you. I hope this helps. [ alexus21's advice column | Ask alexus21 A Question ]
