[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 557607, member: 1514"] My son was awful from mid teens onward till we completely put the breaks on him and slapped him with 3 felony charges at age 21. That was the absolutely hardest thing I have ever had to do but I feel if I hadnt done it he would have continued on his downward path and done far worse. At least what he did was to me and I had some input into his sentencing. He was probably let off lightly according to some but it was hard for him. He turned himself around really and is doing much better but I also credit that to him becoming older. There are studies out there that show that the frontal lobe doesnt finish growing until age 24-25 and that is when you will see what your kid will truly be as an adult. I pretty much believe that now. At 17 I thought my kid was headed to a lifetime in prison...now...not so much. [/QUOTE]
