[QUOTE="elizabrary, post: 745721, member: 11235"] I used to work in the juvenile justice system and I will say they give those kids (unless it's rape or murder) every chance to get turned around. In my experience they have been arrested multiple times before they are sent to a juvenile prison facility. My daughter had trouble as a teen, but it never escalated to being arrested so I didn't have to deal with it from a personal standpoint. Just my opinion but I think inpatient drug treatment would be a great option if it's available. That gives everyone a break from the stress and will put your son in a place where his sole focus is on getting clean and sober and learning how to stay that way. It's a tough road once they start down it and it's important that he learns how to manage his sobriety on his own. I hope things turn around for him and settle down for you. Be kind to yourself.
