[quote=Anonymous]Got cut off sorry.

It has to be his choice to stop or use less.   We don’t make it easy for him but we no longer punish, or really get mad. It’s a strange place for us to be but that’s where we are.

He’s 17 and a social, good looking kid who definitely participates in the hook up culture.

He has times when he refuses school, he has very volatile and angry episodes, but in all honesty , less so since marijuana entered his life.  He has depressed times when he can barely function.

He does ok in school but puts minimum effort in.  Has a 3.3. School does not come easily to him, but he’s smart and has an entrepreneurial mind.

My hope is that he gets into a decent small college, with mental health support.  That he takes care of his physical health as best he can and that he always knows how much we love him and are there for him.  It’s likely going to continue to be rocky, but having a child like this changes you.  We try to guide but we know we can’t really control.

So that’s my “rebellious teen” [/quote]
