[QUOTE="MomOntheEdge, post: 647724, member: 18763"] I have read many of your replies to other threads and I truly commend you for being so willing to share your stories and advice with all these moms and dads like me who are feeling hopeless and INSANE. Difficult Child does not drive yet - but he is just about to finish drivers ED, and I know his girlfriend (who I am VERY suspicious about) is letting him drive her car a lot - even when she's not with him (I secretly hope he gets busted driving with no license so it will get the law involved). I would not let him drive any cars until I have peace of mind that he is not driving will under the influence. My brother almost killed himself by nodding out behind the wheel 10 years ago when he was a heavy heroin user. I'll never forget it. I don't give my son an allowance - because frankly he's never met my qualifications to earn one. I give him $5 here and there for McDonalds - only when he's been having a "good week". I lock up my cash now since if there is $10 in my purse - it vanishes pretty quickly. Bu then I think...hmm - maybe I spent it somewhere and forgot. Maybe it fell out of my purse and blew away... what is wrong with me??? No other kids in the house - he's my only one, the king of the castle. He has my full attention most of the time, but he abuses it usually by talking me into driving him somewhere or giving him something - even if it's just more data on his phone,,,, Right now he has no phone, no computer, and no bedroom door - so things must be pretty boring at this point. I'm running out of things to take away! Hi TV and his skinny jeans are next I guess.... I found another pen today with the end all melted - I'm taking it over to the police station in a little bit to have it tested. If it's something other than pot...what then? Where do I send him for rehab for teens? Will they take him without his consent? [/QUOTE]
