I've decided this is probably the best course of action. Thank you for the advice.
I've talked to him about this and he knows I love him regardless of whether he's "masculine." Do I want him doing feminine things? Of course not,...
Hi Aldrick. Thanks for the suggestion. I sat down and talked with him about things earlier this week and essentially did a "reset" like you...
That's the thing. He hasn't done any of this. He isn't remotely interested in being safe and it scares me. I don't know what's going through his...
First… Thanks for posting! Please don't ever think that your advice or opinion doesn't matter just because others are older than you. The...
First, I wanted to thank you for replying. I really appreciate someone offering constructive advice instead of a barrage of insults. I...
I really don't think I'm "incredibly strict and controlling" but everyone here seems to disagree so perhaps I am. His new medication has...
I've never had this issue with his brother though and I'm strict with both of them. I don't "threaten" him. I've tried being cooperative and...
No, his father isn't involved so there isn't any love or support from him. He does have an aunt and uncle and his grandparents. The problems...
Hello everyone. I figured I would give this forum another attempt since a lot has happened since I last posted here but I'm having a lot of...
For example, he's been coming to my office after school for some time now so I told him he could hang out with some of his mates tonight since he...
Please don't take what I said out of context. I am trying to work with him. I was merely saying that I didn't want to offer a "deal" to him. I...
Thanks for the advice, but I don't need to offer a deal to control my son's behavior. I've been working on those things and being more mindful...
I agree with you. Though Chip did raise an issue about how he could be abusing his ritalin, I don't think he is using hard drugs. I've been...
I've been watching for him to post here and he hasn't in a while. Is there a way to see all of his posts?
Again, I do not want him using pot.
I can't see my son trying cocaine or meth. He's supposed to take ritalin. Do I need to know all the drugs I want him tested for? Someone at...
Unfortunately therapy with him wasn't productive at all. He was extremely uncooperative. For example, he called the therapist the "c" word when...
I was able to get an appointment scheduled for tomorrow evening with the centre where he's already seeing someone. I was only able to get one...
I've tried working with him and he basically starts picking a fight by calling me inappropriate names if he doesn't like where I'm trying to...
