[QUOTE="MomOntheEdge, post: 647960, member: 18763"] Hi strugglingdad - this is "strugglingmom", aka lovemyson2, aka MomOnTheEdge.... Your story is so similar to mine. My son - just turned 16 - and since he was 14 we have been in the battle of the Pot. That is the only thing he is motivated to do or talk about, or work towards. School is a waste of time according to him, and following rules is just a "suggestion from society" in his mind. It's been a living nightmare. He moved up to trying acid and molly, and just recently - like a month ago - started drinking any alcohol in our house that he could get his hot little hands on. He doesn't care if he gets caught. He doesn't care if he gets grounded or loses his phone for 2 weeks, or anything. I can't monitor him 24 hours a day - I work full time, like most of us do - so when I'm working...he's playing. I know he's smoking pot in his room - I took the door off. Can't tell is he's still doing it or not. He sprays Axe body spray all over the place and burns incense so I don't know what the hell I'm smelling half the time. I offered him a similar deal - abide by my curfew, don't skip school, and don't do drugs in the house and I will try to look the other way. That seemed to be a good deal until all this alcohol started going missing and I started finding these suspicious hollowed out pens with melted ends just this past week...the pens are what brought me here to this forum (thank god). I don't have any answers. I follow your thread in the hopes of getting more advice as well. I find myself hoping that he's not home when I come home from work - because I just can't deal with him. If he's got no plans on a Saturday - it makes for a LOOOOOONG day for me. I'm in the same boat - keep reading and asking questions on here. I am hoping we both get some relief at some point. [/QUOTE]
