[QUOTE="Percy, post: 705881, member: 21263"] KSM - he get's drug testing, but it isn't random. It is at appointments he knows about in advance. AND he fakes the drug tests. And gets away with it. (He has admitted as such; I have seen texts where he discusses it with friends.) It is laughable how they test the juveniles at the juv ct/probation offices by us. PO hands kid the cup, and sends kid down the hall to the bathroom open to the public. Kid pees in cup (or in the case of my kid, pours the urine from the bottle in his pocket into the cup) and brings it back to PO. Great system. He does not have a curfew from PO. We as parents gave up on a curfew 6 months ago -- he would ignore every and any curfew we imposed. And, same as with the pot, we had no leverage bc we had run out of consequences. I have not approached PO as an ally in this; she is an officer of the court, not a therapist or social worker. So I can't envision myself talking to her as if we are on the "same team". Also, were I to do so, son would feel massively betrayed, and go into ODD overdrive if I were to "collude" with PO against him. [/QUOTE]
