[QUOTE="A dad, post: 670159, member: 18668"] Your son is so similar to mine he wears the same clothes every day he showers well not as often as he should he had no motivation for school and finished with above average grades I mean he had a C(well the equivalent of that in my country) at gym granted he had C at everything so he was consistent at least, never managed to take his license he failed 12 times and he had to redo driving school again to try again and in my country you have to pay for it and its a whole paycheck so we did not pay another time. We figured he is just not ready to drive he is now in his middle 20's and still has no license. The difference is he never had many friends he had 3 in his entire life and one is his older brother and instead of drugs he slept just slept as much as he could. You have a chance to change him to make him a fit man for society with a well balanced life I lost that chance you still have it the cause are drugs or maybe there the symptom but he will get help there I did not do that for my son and I have no opportunity to do it now as he does not need me for anything now. Try the best solution and send him to rehab you have no idea how how lucky you are you still have some influence over your son and hope your son will have a great well balanced life not a life with no family or friends just a job and a place of your own to come back everyday. As my wife said he at least is not a burden to anyone but in my opinion better a burden then such a "life". [/QUOTE]
