[quote=Anonymous]My son turned 18 in the fall and is a senior in HS. We have caught him with pot on several occasions. There have been discussions and consequences every time. Things would seem to be back on track and then we would catch him again. He has gotten into college and has started skipping school a lot and breaking house rules (breaking curfew, disregarding respectful behavior, ignoring chores, angry outbursts, etc. ). We are concerned that he will push this rebellion too far and either botch graduating from HS or have his college acceptances rescinded. We have encouraged him to see a therapist and he flat out refuses. We are getting guidance from a therapist ourselves. We are concerned that his drug use has extended beyond pot. Are there any parents that have been through something similar? We want to be there for our kid, but draw the line at him being a tyrant in our home. We have younger kids and cannot condone any drug use. What would you do?[/quote]
