[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 578362, member: 6705"] OK, first things first... :hugs: been there done that. The entire system has failed my Onyxx. She will be 18 in a month... And similar issues keep happening. I'm sure she has hidden stuff in Jett's bedroom, as he cleans about as well as your average teen boy... It took over a year for him to find his Nintendo DS that was in a backpack in his closet. She probably doesn't even remember all her hiding places, and as her bedroom will be Meggie's eventually, we'll have to do MAJOR cleaning/ripping out carpet/vents/light switches. As you put it, he is 17. This means that if you need to kick him out... The system probably won't stop you. Is it the best option? Probably not. But, like me, you have younger children to worry about. The best thing we ever did for Onyxx was to call the cops on her. It got her INTO the juvenile justice system and has gotten her some help. Is it perfect? No. But... It's more than we had before. [/QUOTE]
