A dad branded 'extremely stupid' gave his teenage daughter drugs in what a judge called 'a complete inversion of the parent-child relationship'. A court was told the 45-year-old believed the 15-year-old would be 'safer' taking them with him, rather than with her friends.

Police were alerted after the girl's mother noticed her daughter had 'eyes like saucers' when she came home following access visits to her ex-husband's home in Farnworth, near Bolton, the town's crown court was told.

She also claimed her father had asked her to make cocaine and amphetamine cocktail 'bombs' which they could take together. He admitted giving her amphetamine, but denied supplying her with cocaine.

At Bolton Crown Court the father, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was jailed for 18

According to the site, the word can also mean “fake text messaging,” as well as “sending Facebook messages of an extreme sexual nature.”The first lady may soon bring her own G-rated definition of the word into the public lexicon, saying she and Joe have been “fexting” for more than a decade.
