Hey everyone
I will try and keep this brief....16yo son went to dinner with dad and I and while we were away he gave the combo to our garage door to sketchy friend and company. Sketchy friend comes in my house and breaks into our locked cabinet and stole alcohol. I came home and son left with sketchy friend. I noticed something was up with sketchy friend's behavior....too nice to me, overly talkative etc. So called husband to come home from an errand. We found broken bottles on our garage floor and then the missing bottles and messed with lock. Called son to come home...did and he finally fessed up that sketchy was in our home. Called sketchy friend and told him he was never allowed in our house again. Then while I was dealing with son....I told him that I was going to have to call my neighbor whose daughter is dating sketchy friend and tell her what happened. Our son knows that is the agreement I have with my neighbor. Son proceeds to call sketchy friend and tell him. Later sketchy friend's mother calls and says she does not know where her sone is. I explain what happened. She continues to call saying she cannot find him. I try and help her....our son tells her that her son knows that I am going to tell his girlfriend's mom. Sketchy friend's mom tells me that her son is suicidal.....omg!
He remains missing all night....my son and husbnd went up to police dept to give them info. They end up finding him this am...all cut up....evidently this is his MO....and he is admitted to the hospital.
His mom then calls me to please with me not to tell girlfriend's mom.
Am I compassionate to this messed up kid? Am I done with this messed up behavior of these kids? Do I think that if he wanted to really kill himself he would have dome it? Do I care about anything but the issue of my son's incredibly bad choices? Is it time to say I can't do this anymore and send him to a safer environment?
Let me just say my son's friends are kids that I believe get a kick out of being messed up and medicated....am I just harsh or does anyone else see this culture? Ugh ugh and more ugh.....
