Yeah, but I had already disposed of it because the police said it'a grey area because a parent could place it in their kids rooms. They would only arrest them if it was found on their person or in the locker at school or something like that.
POSITIVE UPDATE: So today they both started talking to me like a human being again. It was family night & they even played cards & we ordered pizza. The 16 year old even said, "so when are we gonna talk this all out?" I said in a few days when everyone cools down & Jeff (step dad) gets home & he said ok. We even watched a movie together. I'm glad he's being normal again, but we still have to deal with the issues & I hope we can like mature adults. Thanks for all the thoughts & prayers, it's working. And he won a Marine t shirt from a recruiter at school today.
There just wanting there phones back. You've took away what means the most to them. I wouldn't give them back until I seen improvement. I was very unruly as a child. My mom tried almost everything Karate therepy nothing seem to help until one year I stayed grounded for a whole year eventually I learned to straighten up some I will get to have my life back.
I just want to tell you I ran away at 17 (in Ohio) the cops put an apb out for me, thats it. I work in Cleveland just a couple miles from where my parents lived. I just got a job in a place I new they would not go. The cops told my mom there was nothing they could do, they new I ran away and was not kidnapped. It maybe different with a 15 year old idk they didn't really even look for me except the first night they went to my boyfriends house. I never looked back but the problems different my parents tried to control my every move until I couldn't take anymore. Also I already graduated so the cops knew I was not going to do anything stupid to get caught.
I eventually got over my anger and had a great relationship with them for a long time. Your boys will thank you if not now maybe when your son goes to the marines, and he knows that keeping him clean is what made that happen.
Thanks, @char. I bet since you were 17 and able to take care of yourself that's why they couldn't really do anything. I read that at 17 (in Ohio) you can get emancipated if you're living on your own and taking care of yourself. I'm glad it eventually worked out that you could get a long with them again. I try not to control their every move, but sometimes I wish I could! Ha ha No, I really want my 16 year old to start preparing for being independent. It's getting close to time and as long as he's mature and doing things to be ready for that, like have a job and car, then I'm all for it. It will take him some time though.
Does anyone here know about home drug tests? Like what kind are good and what they check for, how accurate they are and how easily the results can be tampered (if someone were trying to pass with dirty urine)
Just take them to an instacare its a more reliable way to test or make an appointment and take them out of school for it make 100% sure they have no idea or they can flush their systems
I got a hold of his cell phone while he was napping earlier. I can't believe the crap on it. Talking about sneaking out & the cigs at school & drugs. I know who some of his drug buddies are now.
And wtf, he's playing 3 girls at the same time!! He's really cute & stylish so they all like him.
I met with the intervention lady today. She's going to talk with him at school & said I should get a drug & alcohol assessment at a local agency. (the 15yo)
O. M. G. !!!! I'm SO GLAD you shared that article with me! Those are the EXACT symptoms he had the night I had to rush him to the hospital! THANK YOU!!!
I know nothing about child behavior, but my fil and step mil do spice! It pisses hubby and I off. We have talked to them about the side effects and how they aren't allowed near our son while on it.... They don't seem to get why it's as bad/worse than actual pot! I smelled it several times while we stayed with them for a short time.
