You wait till you are a mum hun! I try not to be too over the top and have never contacted her mates before and typically as soon as I had contacted a colleague of hers via fb she returned!

It's not about being a child. It's about behaving like an adult and that means NOT leaving someone worrying about you. I would read her the riot act no matter what age she is.

Believe me she is in the dog house and exactly if it was me who had gone out and not come back till the next afternoon I think she would be worried!

Both mine are grown up now and parents themselves.
The best bit of advice I was given about bringing up teenagers was to choose my battles carefully. It stood me in very good stead. I was quite an easygoing parents but when something really mattered I came down on them like a ton of bricks and because it wasn't often they really listened and took notice.

so glad she's home safe hun, she's very lucky to have a mum who cares so much about her and worries even at the age of almost 20. My dad never had a clue where I was, as long as he could tell I had returned home at some point he was happy. He said he never had reason to worry about me... the pile of washing showed him that I had been home, got changed and gone back out! I became a parent myself at the age of 19 and had to become an 'adult' and now I plan on never letting Holly and Tyler out of my sight when they are teenagers lol x

Its very difficult and she knows she is out of order. Luckily she doesn't do it very often without letting me know but that is why I was worried x
