[quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Weed PP thank you - all very useful advice, and along the lines of what I was thinking.  I certainly smoked my share in high school, and saw the results of "rehab" on enough of my friends not to think about that route, even if we could afford it.  I certainly don't want the police involved.

Given how much weed he says he had, I think we may be dealing with low-level dealing here at the most (splitting it up & selling to friends). I doubt he has thought about the implications of being caught by the police.  He is dumb enough to bring it to school, and was basically given a second chance there when they caught him high but didn't search him. He was suspended and had to go to drug classes.

Pretty sure his mom (custodial parent) doesn't know the full extent of this yet. Balancing act to keep his trust so he keeps talking so that we know what he's doing & can talk to him about why it might not be the best idea.  I'm not sure what more punishment could be doled out. Everything has pretty much been taken away...  Part of the problem is that everything was already taken away for much less serious behavior. We have some differences of opinion with his mom about when/what punishments should be, and think she goes to bat for him too often at school when he should just fail.  I think he believes that nothing he does wrong ever has very real consequences.

I am looking for the Rolling Stone article. If anyone knows the title or author, let me know.[/quote]
