[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 653866, member: 1550"] Terry, he probably lied a lot to you. It's not what you want to hear, but it comes from experience. All of it may be a lie. Some. Maybe, by some miracle, it's partly true. I started to take Daughter with a grain of salt, which was the only way to take her when she used drugs. My guess is your son has used pot last night and did not want to get tested, not two days ago. He may use it every day. It may be more than pot. You can't know. None of us can. They usually have some good days, contrite days, after screwing up, but the cycle starts up again. You feel like you're on a merry-go-round. Just when you think things are better, something else gets dropped on your head. I am not trying to depress you (honestly!), but just prepare you. He is not straightened out yet. He has not learned his lesson yet. He has many other friends besides these two who may or may not be going to jail that you don't know about. He may be having sex with this girl who may have given him the STD and he has not fessed up to H yet and is probably still doing the deed with her too. The fact is, once they get in deep, we have no idea what they really do. They pacify us to shut us up. If doing some chores will shut us up, they will. It beats having a real job. Maybe you'll even feel sorry for him and throw him some $$$. That's how they think in a drugged fog. Hang onto the phone, no matter how many chores he does. And hang firm. The less access he has to bad people, the better it is for him and, although he won't say so, for himself too. Hugs!!! [/QUOTE]
