[QUOTE="Rotsne, post: 217297, member: 6326"] For a start: I don't believe in the term ODD. The top doctors in our country has publicly declined to treat this illness. You have a son, who are self-medicating himself for some reason. It is too late to lock him in a dog-cage in a boarding school and it would not have been the right answer from the start of. He is adult in a couple of years. He needs to learn how to stand on his own feet and the best teacher is you. You need to do some sacrifies. First I will recommend that you go some place which is isolated to wear his drugs off. Most drugs will leave the body in some 8-10 days. A wilderness trip for your both would be both cheaper than the courses for troubled teens and because you are in fact conducting one long family therapy session during the course, it only need to last about a week. If wilderness is not possible, the rent a cabin a remote place and get family to serve you with supplies. Go for a hike during the day to make the time go faster. The second sacrify you need to do is to starve. Inform him that he is in charge of dinner one or two days a week. Because he could use the money for dinner in a less wise way, he just have to tell you what he needs and you will do the shopping, but if he cannot manage to make dinner you all will go to bed starving. Don't cave in regardless of how hungry you are. He needs to be ready to live on his own. Taking him out of circulation for a short period and giving him [LEFT]responsibility have been tried with success. I hope for the best and pray for you.[/LEFT] [/QUOTE]
