What would you do? Would you allow them to sleep it off and then try to discuss the situation in the morning? I honestly don't know what I would do. I would be terribly dissapointed in my child. I would hope that this was a one time thing and that he would not ever try it again, but I couldn't be with him always. I guess that I would try to get him into counsiling to try to find out why he was using in the first place or if it was just to be cool. What would you do?

My suggestion is don't say him anything at the hot moment.Let him go to sleep.In the morning after breakfast call him.Start talk very calmly.Try to understand him what he did was wrong. He should think of family prestige.With patience counsiling should be done on your child.Try to understand him his bad habit ruining him.If possible take your child to any holiday resort.This change may influence him.You may consult with a psychologist.He will give you proper advice.

Well it's not a new question or a new act by a teenager, but what makes the difference is how you deal with the situation. It could make him or break him. Dealing with teenagers is something you have to do with care and caution. You can also change him to how you would like him to be.
