[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We decided not to go to drug test route. Too adversarial and something he could just wait out until he’s 18 and in college.  It’s just not the kind of relationship we wanted.

We went the relationship enhancing route. Talks, getting to the bottom of why, education about the health implications, monitoring friends and his coming and going, taking the car keys when it was found in his car.

The natural consequences of getting really sick is what did it for him though. He seems to be done with it for real.

Similar here. There were immediate consequences with some grounding and losing the phone (and me deep diving on it ). It seems like the use was mostly at a particular event he loved and we banned that event for quite some time.

Lots of long talks, and revisiting the topic in the months that followed while we worked to rebuild trust. I’m almost certain he didn’t have it for long when we found out. We know the friends he used it with and had open conversations with the other parents and their stories did very much line up.

It was a school year that I was about to extend his curfew, but didn’t. I also wait up every time to have a conversation when he comes in the door.

He also knows that another f-up will delay some upcoming privileges he’s looking forward to. [/quote]
