[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 49617, member: 3626"] Maybe rather than threatening him with his having to leave his home, you should just take him to your police department the next time he comes home drunk or stoned? Let him know the choice is his -- either get straight or enjoy a visit or two or three to juvie. If he chooses to not come home, you then have the option of whether or not you care to let him come home. He's "emancipated his homestead" if he doesn't come home at the time you have given him to be home. It sounds like your PD is equipped to handle teens in his condition and it certainly has to be better than having him on the streets high and living and hanging who knows where. And, let's face it, a juvie record is far better than an adult criminal record or a DUI. Why are you allowing him to drive a car when you know he gets high? Do you really think he was in any condition to drive after three hours as stoned as you described him to be? Will you be able to live with yourself if he gets in an accident while high and kills himself or an innocent? [/QUOTE]
