Between Life and Death

Chantel says that when she's on meth, she would go to school, go to work and come home all while covering up that she was high. She was so good at covering it up that her mother, Penni, didn't realize that she was addicted. "Then my sister, [Kortnie,] said, 'Chantel's in La-La Land,'" Chantel says. "And my mom asked the school counselor to give me a UA [urine analysis]. And she did and I was positive for methamphetamines."

After finding out, Penni resorted to locking Chantel in the house "At the time [I did that because] I knew that she's safe with me."
