[quote=Anonymous]You are doing what any parent would do, helping and trying to figure out how to get your DS to finish high school. I would do the same, yet at the same time you are(as would I) sending your DS a message that you will always bail him out. Simpy, it has to do with teen brain. On one hand we want our children to come to us for help, but at the same time we are trying to teach them that they can't get away with things. I won't pretend that I know the solution, I would be in the same mess you are in now. (I was a couple of months ago with DD throwing a party.) I think your DS is under peer pressure and can't say no. Also, where is he getting the money for it? I assume it started with friends offering it? Did you post if he is seeing a therapist? Maybe looking into a small private school where he would have a change of peer circle might be a good option? Good luck.[/quote]
