[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 731072, member: 15032"] Sorry that you have to be here but welcome. I would think your son is using other drugs and possibly drinking too? Usually we only "see" the tip of the iceberg. If he could not stand up that is more than just weed. Did he drive in that condition? My son is my heart also and he has been on a slow slide since the age of 15. He is getting better now finally but he started with pot/weed also. I used to smoke it in high school too so didn't worry terribly about it at that time and thought it was a phase. Do you have any other children? It sounds pretty severe punishment for him to go to an alternative school for one incident of drinking! None of us know what to do when this starts as you probably can see by the other member's posts. It can take years to figure this out and I'm in year 8 and still not sure what is up a lot of the times. I would definitely take the car away. If he is driving under the influence he is putting himself and others at risk and if it's all in your name you stand a lot to lose financially as well. [/QUOTE]
