[QUOTE="klmno, post: 424179, member: 3699"] I don't know if you've kept up on my son, who's 16yo now and spending the majority of his teen years in Department of Juvenile Justice, but unfortunately, they seem to be influenced a whole lot more by the other people they are serving time with instead of the guards and family. That's the downfall of incarceration that hampers rehabilitation so many times. I'm sorry... I don't have any answers though. When they are distanced from family and spend 24/7 with worse criminals for extended periods, this is pretty much what happens. All I can suggest is to maintain those healthy boundaries you've set and detach from the unhealthy ties, if you had any, because you sure can't control him anymore. (Not that you ever tried to, just that the situation is completely out of your hands at this point.) [/QUOTE]
