My sister is on probation for a number of reasons..drugs, dui, assaulting a police officer etc etc ! She has recently moved in with my father who is 70 years old, and my other sister who is mentally challenged ! She is now again back on drugs, a full blown tweeker...she is to the point that she thinks she can do no wrong..shes perfect and everybody else has a problem ! She even thinks my dad is listening in on her cell phone calls, that he has it rigged so that when her phone rings, he can answer hers too ! I think she is a ticking time bomb befor she goes off on one of them ! Talking to my dad about it is not an option.....he thinks she is rehabilitated and thats that ! Do you think I should turn her in ?

Yes. It's not fair that your Father and Sister suffer with her. And also it will probably in the long term get her off the drugs. Hope this helps
Call A&E and do an intervention...this would be a great tv show!
You should definitely turn her in. It is called tough love. She needs to learn her lesson the hard way before it is too late. It is unfair to you, your father, and your other sister that all you folks need to deal with her being an inferior to your lives. Sister problem.? I am 19 and my sister is 33.

i think that you should approach her and tell her how her behaviour is affecting you and how much it upsets you, then maybe she will see sense

Well, honestly...
before giving your sister in, your might want to try and help her "yourself". Try and talk to her as a friend... and less like a sister. Try and get her friends on YOUR side...and tell them to talk your sister out of her bad deeds.
Maybe it isn't a doctor or a psychologist that your sister needs, maybe its just someone who understands her well enough... someone who can guide her to the right path, someone willing to make that step? Hey... I've never dealt with anything as your situation.. but i've definitely dealt with drug users... helped them out.. talked them out of their deeds... and suprisingly, they look up to me... and i always tell them one thing...
"I honestly didn't do anything, it was ALL YOU... if you didn't make the choice of changing.. you would have end up in a far more worst place"
Just remember two things... "to leave one addiction, you have to hold on to another on...(it's a known fact)
Try and help her join some clubs.. or get a hobby that would not relate to her life (as it is right now)
Now, if that doesn't work... then you might want to consider helping your sister out with other alternatives... but keep "turning your sister in" as a last resort... and your LAST option.
Should I establish a relationship with my sister-in-law?::
I think you could do that. What happened between you and your brother has nothing to do with your sister-in-law. Who knows!! Maybe you and she will become good

Good luck! I hope your sister gets well soon.
Make a call to Dog.
From what you have said, she doesn't seem to have broken any laws. Try and get her some substance abuse counseling at the very least.
Turn her in. She needs to be locked up.
I think so. You need to protect your father and your sister who is mentally challenged. Also, it sounds like you might need to protect this other sister from herself. I am sure you care about your sister but it sounds like your dad and other sister might be in a situation where they couldn't protect themselves if she lost it.
in a heartbeat..she needs help..
YES. Obviously she is paranoid. She may crack at any minute and the rest of your family is in jeopardy. You need to not only look out for your family- but make sure your sister gets the help she needs- before something tragic happens.
if it is pot then no but if it is a serious drug addiction like coke or heroin then yeah
Yes, this is definitely a case where you need some TOUGH LOVE. You could try to have a family intervention with her, telling her that either she goes to get professional treatment and get clean, or she will be kicked out of the house and not get any help from any you ever again. However, this may be difficult if your father can't open his eyes and see his daughter for what she really is. Until he agrees to do an intervention, I'm not sure there is much hope for your sister. Talk to him about this and make him realize that she is no way rehabilitated -- how can a girl with no job living with her dad be rehabilitated? Tell him that he is only enabling her and making the situation worse. If he doesn't act, she will end up dead. Plain and simple. And if this still doesn't work -- turn her in! You have no choice. You will probably save your sister's life by stepping in and doing something. Good luck! My husband is secretly attracted to my sister? I just know they like ::

Yeah!!
if you love her you should def give her help, and that means even going to jail. you dont want her to hurt someone...
There will be dire circumstances if you turn her in - likely she may never talk to you again, and you may alienate your father as well. That's the reality. If I were you, I'd go to a police station and ask a hypothetical question about what would happen, find out what you are dealing with, and what would happen to your sister.
Now that you know you could lose them, I'm telling you that I see no choice for you but to turn her in. It's for her own good and your family's safety.
I wouldn't turn my own sister in but you can be sure if she is on probation and using she'll get caught all on her own.
yes u should
I would turn her in since I believe you can do so anonymously. Your sister has a real problem and maybe if you turn her in she'll have another chance to straighten up. In the least, your mentally challenged sister will be safe and so will your dad!
omg !!!!!!!!!!
i dont think so !
well im on the same problem your in !
to tell you the truth my brother just got locked up !
he was on the run ! :(
and he was staying at my grandma's
and she rated him out !
so now all of us dont like her nomore !
so to tell you the truth you should'nt do it because you dont want ppl turning on you !
hope i helped
You will need proof, but yes she is a danger to your father and your other sister. If you know who her probation officer is I would call him and suggest he require a drug test.
Yes, you would be doing everyone including her a favor.
Your sister obviously needs help for her addiction. Turning her into her probational officer may be what she needs to turn her life around.
I think you already know the answer and wanted some back-up. Do you have any real back-up as in family that can come together to assist you? Because not only do you need back-up but it reads as if you and your extended family may need to look into placing someone that you can trust in your Fathers home. Especially if he is elderly and capable of being taken advantage of AND is the sole caregiver to a mentally challenged daughter. Your sister sounds like she just moved in where she knew no one would get in her way and if she isn't stopped someone besides her could be hurt. Think of the people she associates with and their presence in that house. Think NOW if you should call the probation officer or authorities. Your protective instincts are correct, seek help to remove your sister from the house and seek help from the family in stepping up to help with the responsibility of keeping an eye on a 70 year old gentleman and his mentally challenged daughter.
As far as turning her in? It's isn't really about her, she's made her choice. If you like you can address her if you think she is rational (but if she's a habitual user...). Your concern I believe is more about the family that is subject to her whims and poor choices (to put it lightly). Get help from your family. If you are very young you need someone she will take seriously. Aunt, Uncle she respects and would be embarrassed of disappointing is a good start. But that person should also be a person of their word who understands tough love.
threaten her you will if she doesnt stop,
and if she doesnt, then turn her in.
Yes, if not to protect her, to protect your father and your other sister.
