[QUOTE="SoStressedIJustCan't, post: 704979, member: 21192"] I really hope you don't have any of these problems with your son. I'm sorry he came into the world already being addicted, I couldn't imagine that. It's great that you took him in and are giving him a loving home. Not all kids fall prey to peer pressure. My daughter never did, and my son really didn't, he did it because he wanted too. My daughter is 18 and smokes pot. She said it relaxes her because she's so her grades, that she's needs a stress reliever. She's in her first year of college and she's a biology major. I can't complain too much, her grades are great, she works when she's home and she's very responsible. My son, however doesn't smoke he drinks and takes bars. Apparently he likes jail too. He's a sweet kid but only when things are going his way. Alot of how they turn out has to do with their group of friends. That's key to make sure you weed out any potential problem ones. I made my daughter choose a sport and two clubs every year throughout HS, to keep her busy. My son refused. I also put her in ap class to keep her out of general population. It worked for her and she was not allowed to hang out with kids that their parents weren't involved. We all got onto the girls if one of them did something wrong, it really helped. It does take a village to raise these kids. My son was so difficult I could not get him to even listen. [/QUOTE]
