[QUOTE="TYLERFAN, post: 8180, member: 26"] Hi: Sure does sound like he is using something. For years I had to hide everything valuable from my difficult child. It got so bad I was sleeping with my car keys, medications and money either under my pillow or under my mattress. It is very important you protect yourself and easy child. I'm not sure the lawyer can do much to get him help. Is he expected in court soon? Possibly they could get an Residential Treatment Center (RTC) or mandate him to a group home with therapeutic services..... To be honest, we did that and it really didn't stop her. Finally had to get her out of the house. I know he is only 16, but he is sliding down a slippery slope here. I'm sorry you are going thru this. Drug treatment is really the only answer and he has to WANT that. Maybe you can go to the family court and ask for a PINS (Person in Need of Supervision)Petition? I don't know what the cutoff age is for that in your state. It's a hard thing to deal with and 16 is a tricky age legally. Wishing you the best. Blessings, Melissa [/QUOTE]
