[QUOTE="hearthope, post: 49092, member: 2389"] You have been given really good advice. I just want to add one thing. My son was 14 and out of control. I turned to docs and then to the police for CHINS petition. He ran away from Residential Treatment Center (RTC). He ran from the police. I then felt like I was racing against time to get him placed in rehab for substance abuse before turning 18. My son had us all fooled. He was abusing drugs and alcohol. He wouldn't come home if he was high. He didn't care about the consequences of breaking curfew, he didn't want me to see what he was really doing. I got him all the help I could before he reached 18. He is now 18, living with difficult child friend and his mom, has courtdate june 7 on original charges of theft and not making his restitution payments. He was only given one diagnosis in all the testing we did. It was adhd. that diagnosis was overturned by psch. hospital and it was ruled just sub. abuse I love him and always will. I cannot will him to make better choices. He knows I love him. He knows he broke my heart. All of that is less important to him than the drugs he is currently abusing. Your nephew is not looking at what he is doing to you and your brother. He is looking for his next high however he is getting it (drugs,stealing,living on the edge) I almost allowed my son to destroy my family, read the detachment links [/QUOTE]
