You do realize you can go online and see all of her texts, correct? At least you can with ATT. It's okay to look at the texts on her phone but don't say a word about it, you have information that they are not aware that you have. It can help you manage events and your daughter to go down a path that you approve but she herself chooses.

Taking away her phone will not work. This generation lives in and with social media. You can't fight that if you want your daughter to be treated as "normal" by her peers.

Ypu can't "punish" here into making right choices in her life. She now needs your help in making the "right" choice on her own, She has to be allowed to fail and make bad decisions. What you don't want is those "bad" decisions to be something she can't recover from.

There's always going to be a guy who wants to go further that she wants to go, an oppertunity to try drugs, go to parties. You can't stop that from happening. You just have to help her learn how to deal with those situations and hope she makes the right choice.
