[quote=Anonymous]Dad here, with some experience in dealing with boys who get out of line. I have two thoughts. First, he is past you. You're not getting through to him, and it does not sound like you're going to. He's not engaging with you, so don't spend all of your time trying to. Second, I would strongly encourage you to let him, and help him, explore military service. Every single problem you list is something that the armed forces has dealt with, and will continue to deal with, every time the recruits get off the bus for basic training. Simply put, what they do is take boys like your son and turn them into men. One note: he has to be clean. Automatic deal breaker--don't let him talk to a recruiter if he's using.[/quote]
