Morning Mandy....I have to agree with Gayle too...I worked for and agency that counseled abused children. I too would wonder about the 24 yr old boyfriend and wonder what is happening at her house. I would sit and try to talk to her and see if she would open up to you. I am a Mom to 2 girls. Erin is 30 yrs old and Courtney is 25 yrs old. I have learned, through my years of motherhood, if you forbid them to see someone they will want to see them even more...It's a teenage thing! I had an issue sort of like this with my oldest when she was a teen...she was hanging around with a group of kids that I DID NOT like! The more I told her she couldn't hang around with them the more she would...and she would sneak to see them. Even though it was beyond my better judgment, I would allow them to come to my house. I felt this way I could keep and eye on things...eventually she saw what I was trying to tell her and she stopped hanging around with them. He is only 17...this is a tough age...I'm sure this probably won't last forever. Bringing up teenagers today is very tough...I wish you luck!

Big ((((((hugs))))) to you
