[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 368150, member: 6546"] Please understand that I mean this in a very gentle way, because I am also a Mom and I understand how much you love your son and don't want to make any trouble for him. IF your son is choosing to engage in criminal behaviors (doing drugs, running away, skipping school, etc) then HE is the one choosing the criminal record. You are NOT making trouble for your child by reporting it. In fact, by protecting him from the consequences of his actions....you are doing more harm than good...AND may get yourself into trouble, to boot! Call the police. Make the report. If you know your son's location and that he may be doing drugs there--tell the police. Be on the side of the law--not against it. Some drug testing kits are available at your local drugstore. As for other facilities? When you speak to the police, ask them about it. They have plenty of info and resources and are usually happy to give advice to parents who are trying to get their kids to do the right thing. [/QUOTE]
