I think you are making a bigger deal out of the bong than you have to. If the communication is going well why push it and make him follow thru with actually physically throwing the bong away (power struggle). There could be a million reasons why he doesn’t want to throw it away, I cant think of any that would be important. Kids see things differently than we do, he may not see that you are waiting patiently for him to throw it away. My advice would be to just toss it, it is home made and if he decides he wants another one some day he can just make another one.
