How do we teach responsibility to our children?

I have a teenage son whom I know wants freedom in everything that he wants to do. He always complain that we are not letting him do what he likes. In turn, we complain he has Stage 1 Alzeimer because he always forgets the little things we asked from him, it seems he's really not focus. I am afraid he might grow up to something that we fear, not being a responsible child. Sometimes I am thinking we are too strict but then what should we do, when we try loosening up a bit, he just overdoes it . Are we expecting too much fom him?

well u need to have a heart to heart talk with ur son n explain him ur fears and what u want from him . tell him nicely once ,twice , thrice but yet if he doesnt listen spank him tho' lightly. u can also stop talking to him to get ur point across but if ur child is much older it can get quiet difficult.last but not the least take ur child to a counsellor to get some sense in his head.

I assumed you have kids. Though i tried already the look and silence means, it just seems that most of the time he ignores it and assumed everything is just ok. Thanks for responding. Have a good day.
