my family has tried everything. to help him We took him to a treatment place. but he told them he was not ready to quit using. drugs or smoking so I don't know what were gonna do Last. night My mom went to get her debit card to purchase something online and noticed that it was missing She called the bank and told them that it was missing so they cancelled that card and is going to send her another. card.

Can they force him to stay in a program since he in under the age of 18? Some drug programs your parent signs you in and you can not leave unless they sign you out. Your mom has to keep trying to find a place for him while he is still under the age of 18 and she has to make sure that she does not give him any money or leave anything around that he can sell and use the money to buy drugs. Do you guys know who he hangs out with? maybe you can find out and notify those kids parents about what's going on. Things will eventually get better no problem or issue lasts forever. Do not feel like you don't have control over your life because you do and your future will be as bright as you can make it if you stay on the right track, all you can do i s pray for him right now. Stay strong i will be praying for you and your family. Never lose hope or faith

He needs ALL control taken from him! He belongs in a rehab that 'he' cannot take himself out of! He needs to be put in rehab for likely quite a long while! He needs for "no one" to give in to him! Cut him no slack! It may sound harsh, but no cure is easy, nor is it quick! He certainly needs deep, and likely long, counseling! You nor your parents can handle it! NOT 'alone' anyway! It has gone too far! There must be a hard line drawn, and stuck with! You can't afford to show sympathy anymore! It certainly isn't going to be an easy road! No easy answer!

Yes he does need to be somewhere where he can get help. Saturday Night he stole my moms debit card and took 500 dollars from her account he said he did not do it. But the bank had a video camera that showed who did it. and he was the person that did it. He now has to go to court. I hope they put his butt in jail for stealing He had no right to steal my moms card.
