[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have adult kids. Your son is 18. You have failed him. And there isn’t much you can do at this point. Harsh, but true. [/quote] Every single successful friend I have (meaning all of them- have fulfilling lives as adults at the ripe old age of 40) had failure parents then, bc I was the last to smoke weed ever at 19. and the last to try booze at 18[/quote] I wouldn’t be happy, I’d talk to him about it see what’s going on- nervous about applications, bored, just feeling like rebelling a bit? Etc - these are all normal human emotions and your job is to help guide him through them. I’d try to get a handle on how big a problem he has- good grades and smoking and drinking here and there - not that big a deal, but I’d try to have an honest conversation with him - I have a great relationship with my son, he does stupid stuff like most do, and we try to figure it out - [/quote]
