Teenagers !!!!

So my husband's 16 year old son moved back in with his mother. After a week and a half, he got suspended from school. Apparently, he and his friend decided to sneak out during lunch break and smoke a cigarette. Well, turns out, this isn't his first attempt at being "cool". He was back up here this weekend to visit, and we found out that he's doing more than smoking cigarettes. He and his stepbrother have been smoking marijuana. He's also taken several Lortabs, and even downed a bottle of Robitussin. As you can imagine, we interrogated him all weekend, and he's been expiramenting with drugs since this past July.

Now what do we do as Parents? Restrictions have been put in place, but will this work? Probably not. We're not un-realistic, we know kids will try things. But the damage he's causing his body with the Lortab and a full bottle of Robitussin has to be something to be concerned about.
