We have tried the let me help you, do you want a tutor. He got caught copying HW and got both himself and a fellow player in trouble.
I can not stress enough how bad the "push him thru even though he failed eight grade" got processed in his immature mind. He has come to believe he can "game" the system with BS, smiles, and white and out right lies. He was fine thru 6th grade. Good grades, rave feedback from all his friends parents. BTW, football started in 7th grade. In 8th grade his team went undefeated and took home the Golden Ball trophy after a 16 year drought. HS football allowed him to "hang out" juniors and seniors who have been a bad influence too.
I will keep trying but with a older son with Aspergers, a 10yr with LD's and my biz in a shambles do to too many moves and too much stress at home, my patience, ability and resources are limited.
Agree with too tough and they go totally over to the dark side. He has to make decision to change. Worry that he is addicted to something stronger then his will to change. Moving to remote location not doable with other kids and their disabilities.
But my wife and I and his siblings can not continue to live like this.
Using off duty LEO's that can tag team him 24/7 best idea so far, but that is most likely more $$$ then I got. He sneaks out behind house to smoke after we all go to sleep. I can't stay up all nite.
Now I have to make phone calls to try and find him? Or do I just wait until he runs out of money and friends or has to come home for school clothes to keep up his "Golden" image at school. IF he fails to show up by dark I will call PD again and they will most likely go look for him as he is a minor.
He was away for 10 days this summer and my wife and I and our two other sons enjoyed the peace and normality we have not had in too long. Then he came back and it started all right back up. Was a rude awakening to just how manipulative he is.

Today's Featured Article - Women and Tractors - Tractor Engine Repair - by Teri Burkholder. One of the great things about working on a tractor engine with your other half is that you know what he is thinking of at all times and can anticipate his every move and his next thought of what he will do. With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
