I have found out that he has been using my computer to find sites on information on how to make meth. Not sure if he is actually doing this but why else would he be looking up the info?

    I know the basics of how to make a lot of illicit drugs...doesn't mean I've ever done it.

    First comment: More information. How old is this kid? Why are you letting them use your computer and you're not watching? Do they have a current drug problem that you're aware of? Has your daughter asked you to purchase copious amounts of cough medicine lately?

    I'd resist the urge to rip his head off and shove it up his...
    Play it cool. Don't let on what you've found. At this point. Keep your eyes and ears open for new information. Be familiar with who he associates with. Report it to the authorities.
    And how old is your daughter? I wouldn't say anything to her at this point, but my actions as her mama would depend on her age.

    If my daughter's boyfriend did that, her 3 older brothers, and her 7 older cousins that are boys would take him out fishing. Way past Montauk and use him for bait.

    this. people research dumb **** all the time. you could be frank with them and say...."so this was in my history, what is up?" and hopefully you have an honest and open relationship with them.

    Is he watching Breaking Bad and curious on how to get such a glamorous lifestyle?

    First, I would make sure it was the boyfriend..Some simple spyware can figure that out for you and then...What Brett said....on whoever the spyware proved to be the culprit...

    My first assumption is he's curious because he probably heard something about it so he looked it up. Doesn't mean he's planning to do it. I look up random, crazy stuff online all the time.

    I would have a talk with him about it. It could be just out of curiosity.

    If I did everything I looked up on the internet, I'd be dead or in jail. Maybe both.

    Some people are just curious. I watch enough Breaking Bad that I was curious how accurate it was, so I looked it up.

    Some people are drug dealers. Maybe talk to your daughter.

    They'd no longer be dating because he is stupid. Stupid for researching it, but more stupid for doing it on my computer.

    cause he hates being the only one watching Breaking Bad that keeps having to use google to understand the plot?

    cause his buddy told him it comes from cough medicine and he wanted to see if he could call him a retard without being wrong?

    cause boys look up weird sht on the internet like pedo jokes, how to build a bomb, dogs pooping on babies, nut shots and where does meth come from?

    There's a reaction for making meth is in my organic chemistry textbook. Fascinating stuff. Perhaps it was informative research??

    It depends. How well do you know him?

    People look up stupid stuff on the internet all the time. Was this just a one time search, or has he been really searching?

    If he's generally a good kid and this was just a one time thing, I'd ignore it. However, I would pay attention to things being said and people they hang out with -- just to be sure.

    If I really thought he was making meth, I'd talk to his parents. Then to the police, only if his parents were unwilling/unable to put an end to it.

    No one just looks up how to make it for sh*ts and giggles. You need to confront him now and quick. Does he watch the show Breaking Bad? Do not let your daughter date a Meth head or dealer. They just Spell Trouble M-E-T-H Trouble

    I would ask him what he found out and why he looked it up THEN beat him to a pulp.

    Don't jump to conclusions.

    If anyone looked at my search history, they would see all sorts of things from "how to inject heroin" to "how drag queens tuck". Doesn't mean that I'm doing any of those things. Sometimes people are just curious and like to learn things. I once spent an entire night researching hammocks. Hammocks. When the internet has the answers to everything, why not learn?

    But still keep a close eye on things, of course. Be suspicious, but not overly so.

    (By the way, the injecting heroin thing? I was writing a story. A character was using heroin. I barely even mentioned the actual injection part, I just wanted to get all of my information correct so I didn't have anything wrong. Hey! Maybe the boyfriend is writing a story about a character with a meth lab! ...Anything is possible.)

    For LOOKING up info? Nothing. Personally I have a very very curious mind and I lookup all kinds of topics. I know how to use almost every kind of drugs out there. Yet I have never taken any kind of illegal drugs in my life. Heck watching a show called "breaking bad" where the characters cook meth would make one try and research more about cooking meth. Curious mind knows no reason.

    But I think you're in the right to be alarmed. Look into it a bit more further. Its your kid, ethics be damned. Keep a close eye on the boy.

    Good luck

    I would tell him if he is too stupid to cover his tracks on a computer without getting caught he is too stupid to cook meth.
