Hi, Im so sorry you are going through all this but one thing I want to point out about his medications and his like of ROTC. He may like doing it in HS but the likelihood of this boy making it in the military is slim to none. The military is extremely picky about taking people with psychiatric disorders and who have been on medications and if your step-son has Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) or Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE), then that is even a bigger issue that would keep him from getting in. Really, a person who is violent isnt a good candidate for the military no matter how ironic that sounds.
