If this is not a troll, my only advice and what works - age. Simple as that. It isn't something you can rush either. I did the frantic parent thing with my son. My husband drove him down to Bethel Boys Academy, Lucedale, MS. aka Pine View Academy. Run by a wonderful Christian named Father Fountain. (this man beats and tortures the children regularly all in the name of GOD). My husband and son toured the place together, talked with counselors and older students. My son wanted to stay there. We rescued him 3 1/2 days later based on horrible abuse allegations I found on the internet surrounding this place and the owner, Fountain. My son had been brutally beaten for a half hour by four grown men within 10 minutes of my husband leaving. Tortured, starved, forced to urinate on himself, etc.
My son had to want better for his life. It didn't matter that his dad and I wanted better for him. We were finally ready to let him suffer any and all consequences from his behavior. He is now 18 and works with a drug enforcement officer training bomb and drug detection K-9's. He loves to joke around that he still messes with the drugs .........only in a positive way. But again, he had to decide he wanted better. Maturity cures all. LOL
