[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 708330, member: 4152"] This is a long shot...but perhaps something to consider. I understand there are coaches that help young people move forward in life. And, there are even ADD coaches. He may or may not have ADD, but someone with added training might be particularly good with young people who are easily distracted, have mild depression or a variety of issues. It might be something to look into to help develop goals, an action plan and get some accountability. Our son went through about 12-18 months of madness. Thank goodness, this passed with some tough love techniques and he is actually mega responsible today. Anyway, if he used curse words while living in our home, we charged him $1. His other option was to move out. We also provided / paid for therapy for him (short term). [/QUOTE]
