[QUOTE="bethg5210, post: 760179, member: 27264"] I certainly hope this is a judgment free zone. I have never done anything like this before, but I am at my waist end and seriously feel like I'm going to lose it. I am a single mother of a 15yo boy. I love my son dearly, but I have no idea what to do. I work full time. At night when I should be able to sleep, he either sneaks out of the house or sneaks other people in. I woke up at 2 a.m. the other morning and there were 6 teenagers in my house drinking. One of them threw up all over my bathroom and I had to clean it up. His father is actively in addiction and my son is following in his footsteps. He doesn't care what the drug is he will do it. He does marijuana, LSD, mushrooms and adderall. I had to take him to the e.r. a couple of months ago because he took 900 mg of methylphenidate (an ADHD medicine) and was having seizures. 3 days later he did it again. He is in "alternative school" and goes from 12-4. Every day when I leave for work he turns my home into the party spot. Him and his friends tear my house up and drink and do drugs. He will not go to school. I have tried to get him therapy and into rehab but he yells and cusses at the people until the just say we don't have to be treated like this. Or they tell me that I can't make him do anything he doesn't want to do. Then he gets angry with me for trying to help him and punches holes is the walls and doors in the house. The police tell me that it is a parenting issue not a police issue because he doesn't actually hit me. He is on probation and has failed 3 drug tests but they don't do anything about it. He stays awake for days at a time then just passes out wherever. Right now he is on the couch snoring so loudly that I can barely think. Does anyone have any ideas or know of anything I can do to get help? [/QUOTE]
