British Parents here in the US with daughter who is now and adult and has now been arrested twice for drug possession (cocaine) felonies. I understand the daughter can be deported as she is an adult, but will her parents face deportation as well as she is here in the US under them?

US immigration law does not punish the parents for the crimes of their children. You would not face deportation because of the acts of your daughter.
