i know im not an adult but i figured maybe some imput on someone whos his age could help. well my first though was that if he was doing it in or by the house knowing someone could walk in at any moment. maybe he wanted or was ready for you to find out. and if he told you he smoked everyday thats opening up which is super hard for some teens, even people. him telling you everything and giving it to you shows that he knows he was wrong, he trust you, and just wants your support. try spending time together and talking more. it could help

Smoking pot everyday? Uh, yeah, I'd say that's a chronic user! Time for a very short leash and sorting out the good and bad ppl he's hanging out with. I see it's been awhile since the original post so hopefully things are working for you and your son.

Every single person I know who has either died from drugs or have ruined relationships in their lives because of drugs, started with...POT!

Short leash, less friends, more healthy hobbies, volunteering (things to keep him occupied), working, rehab (if necessary) lots and lots of LOVE and time spent together!

My son 14 I found his pot in pill bottle in his drawer. My heart stopped :( I can't give u advice I am trying find some myself. But good luck

I have had three boys all of whom are now doing well, but at least 2 had some experience with drug use. Here are my suggestions.

1. Love your child Being a parent means dealing with good and bad, highs and lows. Always tell your child you love him, and be available for support.

2. Restrict money Generally money goes to drugs. Money designated for clothes, school activities, food, goes to drugs, along with whatever the child can steal from you or his brothers or sisters. He may not like it, but will do it.
If he needs things, buy them; if you are suspicious money should not be given.

Maintain precautions with wallets, checks, pocketbooks, etc, and constantly check to prevent theft.

3. Qualified Professionals Get help early from people who know what they are doing. Acknowledging and confronting the problem may not be easy, but it will increase the chance of success.

4. Look for other kids and activities. Returning your child to the vibrant healthy life can be tough. If he has other things, art, sports, etc, try to help him, and promote other activities.

Try to facilitate activities with good kids and be a hinderance to his relationship with other drug users.

5. Moving consider moving and a new environment if possible.

6. Sports Drug use and/or bad grades may disqualify him from sports or other activities. While you're tempted to say see what happened when you use drugs, practically, you will help him gravitate towards drugs. Instead, be your kid's advocate and try to keep him in.

7. Siblings Ask brothers and sisters for advice.

8. Be around. That will minimize drug use.
