[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]my son was at a party and took a pill that was not what someone said it was. It was the first time he had experimented with anything like this, he hd to go to the hospital.
He is OK now but only told me on the condition that I not tell his father. 
Eventually with my sons permission I feel like I will want/need to,
Its hard to keep to myself but I think I am doing the right thing. [/quote]

Not sure if this is the OP, but this is a bright line.

It's a safety issue, and one of the biggest ones for teens right now. Your family dynamics sound complicated if your first impulse is to keep this to yourself, so you have to manage the timing/delivery of the message. But you can't not tell your kid's father.

Separately, consider why it was important to your DS that his father not know that he could've been killed, and that his first impulse may be fear of retaliation from his Dad, rather than concern for his safety. That's a separate and equally problematic issue.
