[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 705865, member: 15032"] Hi I saw that he is 17 after I posted. When will he be 18? I would tell him to get it all out of your home - drugs and paraphernalia - or you are calling the police. Then tell him you will call the police any time he smokes it or uses any drugs in your home. It is illegal. Yes it will be a pain for you but he should get the message. Then you must do it. Also, why not take the door off his room. He doesn't have a right to privacy if he is doing things that are illegal and you do not approve of in YOUR home. Does he have a TV in his room or anything else that he doesn't "need"? Remove it. My son did not smoke weed in our home for long bouts of time (several months) but then would "binge" on whatever he could get his hands on. You will read here that sometimes these kids just refuse to change. They think that we, as parents, have to put up with anything they dish out because we love them. That isn't true. You have to change if he won't. He has to know that you will not tolerate it. Different things work for different kids and for some none of it works = my son. We did all of this. [/QUOTE]
