In Response to daughter as MOH:
I got engaged last summer & we are on track for our July wedding. I asked my daughter to be MOH. However, for the last year she has been in tons of trouble. 3 suspensions from school this year, drug & alcohol use, & stealing. We went through counseling together and she hasnt really changed any of her ways. By the way, shes 15. We fight constantly. Shes not shy saying she doesnt want to be around me, has no respect for me. Its been a hard year. Can I take the MOH away from her? Its mostly about the dress & hair to her, not the true meaning of what a MOH really does. I thought asking her would help our relationship, but I don't think so. Is it going to make it worse if I tell her no?

Seriously? All any bridesmaid (or MOH) is required to do is wear the dress, walk down the aisle, and stand. Also, it's really terrible to kick anyone out of the wedding party, especially family.
You have way bigger problems than whether or not she should be in the wedding, anyway. It sounds like she needs some serious tough love. I'm thinking rehab. If she goes willingly, great. If not, call the cops on her the next time she steals or uses drugs/alcohol or arrange for an inpatient program. You're her mother and she's a minor, so you can put her in one without her consent.
