[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 615525, member: 1550"] I'm 60 and kids took all sorts of drugs back then in the day and they do now too.How do you tell him? You say, "I was looking for a charger in your room and I found these" (hold up bags). While he rants about his privacy, stick to the issue. in my opinion kids don't get the kind of privacy they get once they move out on their own once we find out they are harming themselves. Frankly, I'd do a drug test on him and I'd spring it on him without warning, although many drugs don't show up even if the child has taken them. But many do. If he isn't sober, I'd cut off the car insurance and take the car keys. If he gets into an accident and kills himself or someone else...you don't want to be responsible. I would keep checking his room. After my daughter broke the law by using drugs, we told her flat out that she had lost her right to privacy in our home and that we WOULD be checking her room. We did too. You'd think she would have been careful, but she wasn't. We found tons of stuff in her room. It was like she'd lost all of her common sense. My daughter claimed she mostly took drugs after we went to sleep. I'd call his school to see if they noticed anything with him, like sleeping in class or a bad attitude...anything at all. It's puzzling that there are no clues at all, really. Do you spend a lot of time talking to him or does he mostly just go his own way? [/QUOTE]
