[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 575390, member: 6546"] Karen-- There are a few of us on this board with kids the same age as your son who are literally "counting the days"... By the time they reach this age, we have so little control. Legally, they can refuse treatment. In my state, they are allowed to move out at 17 (but cannot be "kicked out" so figure that one out)...although truthfully, we have kicked our daughter out several times anyway. I am hoping that once she is no longer under our roof, and we don't have to engage in the day-to-day drama, we can have a better, more peaceful relationship. And maybe, that's how you can look at it also, something to look forward to? - you will have the freedom to sleep in a peaceful home...you can enjoy your son's wonderful qualities without the constant battle...
