[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry OP. I don't have personal experience. I'm trying to help a friend who's in the same position with her 16 year old. But she's in half-denial herself. And I'm trying to encourage her to get him help now since it's so much harder at 18. Here is some advice I think I'd try in your shoes. http://psychcentral.com/blog/archives/2013/05/02/how-to-talk-to-your-kids-when-you-think-theyre-using-drugs/ The article says not to punish. I find that hard myself. But I'd try not to. However, if he has access to driving a car, I'd stop that access immediately. Because drinking and driving or drugging and driving is so incredibly dangerous. And if he gets in an accident with someone else while driving your car, you will get sued. I guarantee that. Big hugs.
