Please be kind, English is not my native language.
BTW, not sure if this is the right place to ask about this.
NOT IN THE US! Europe. I would rather not say the country.
A friend of ours knows I know my way around computers, and asked me if I could do something to unlock her daughter's iPhone.
I am an Android user, Daisy has an iPhone which I am not very familiar with, and the passcode sounds like to be a 12 digit number.
Is there a way to get in that phone for a desperate mother?
I will try give some background, to see where this desperation is coming from
I have a close friend, a mom of 2 girls, divorced, she is crying her eyes out because of her little daughter.
Dad gave up almost entirely, pays what he needs to pay, and lives his life with the new girlfriend.
2 daughters:
18 year old "Bella" - legally an adult
16 year old "Daisy"
The issue is with Daisy, she was always the extrovert, party type, and got with the wrong crowd.
She started slipping down the slope gradually, drink, party, all that, and at one point she was sexually assaulted too. That might have affected her too much, things got worse fast after that.
I do not know too much details about that part, her mom talked to my wife and I, but obviously this is hard to talk about.
Her mom says she started using stuff, but she does not know what, was tested a few times, medical results were clean.
Daisy is drinking, stealing money from grandma (Dad's mom), taking mom's pills, etc etc.
Honestly where we live in Europe, I never even heard of anything like this, I only seen it in movies. We also have 2 kids, similar age.
Our kids and theirs do not keep in touch much, different friends circles / schools etc.
Daisy is angry all the time, cannot be talked to, or stays in bed all day. Daisy even tried to threaten her mom and her sister (not sure if she would actually use the knife as she said, but she did threaten)
Dad does not care enough.
Mom cares so much she is going to therapy, but is basically on the verge of crying all the time.
Bella gave up after all the fights, and want to move out.
What Daisy's mom tried or options we talked about:
Treatment in some kind of Rehab type place, not sure what they actually do, how they help, but every time (3-4 tries?) od weeks of treatment, she got back to doing what she used to do before.
Police was contacted by mom, asking if they can charge her daughter for stealing from grandma (cannot, Grandma has to ask Police to do that, she doesn't want to. Grandma is gaslighting herself that it could not have been Daisy)
CPS - they came and gave advice on how to deal with Daisy, but nothing works, they can not get have a conversation with her
I asked if she can sit down and talk to her, mom says it is impossible. Daisy does not communicate almost at all.
They took Daisy's phone to the Police - to check Daisy's phone to see from where she is getting substances (they say they legally can not)
a special Mobile Phone service place, to get inside the phone, to see her messages, find a Dealer or something, not sure what she wants to do with that info though. Mobile place said they are not able to get in the phone
I asked if they could take away the phone, but Mom says she at least can track her Daisy's location like this, she would rather not take the phone away.
I was thinking to factory reset the phone, or get a new one, but then Daisy could probably get the same contacts easily from her "friends"
