Let's start with this...I spy on my son's (17) computer. Sometimes I think I learn too much and I don't know how to deal with the info. Remember, there should be no way for me know this info, so I can't outright tell him what I know, or he'll figure it out (or his friend's will)
This week I read where his "friend" (becoming girlfriend) says "I'm so wasted" I know they sometimes just say this sort of thing. Then my son replies "yea, I was so wasted off that tea we had, lets have it again when we watch that movie (movie of book they should have read over the summer). What kind of tea did they have!!??
I also know that a friend of his is "hosting" a party at another friend's uncle's "crib" and that there will be alcohol. Since there is know way I wolud know about it I don't know how to stop him from going. He works most weekend nights and probably won't get off until 10. I know he will try to have a sleepover somewhere. The mom of the one friend knows that we have agreed to check in with each other to confirm these sleepovers. Both of our kids have attempted to say they were sleeping over, mine stayed out until 3 am, hers went down the shore!! My son will probably say he is sleeping at someone else's, whose number I won't know. These kids are old enough to put their friends on the phone and pretend they're the parent.
Last week, I think he was going to try to do this type of thing, but since he was so tired from school and a lot of work, I told him just to stay home. I watched him out the window as he was reorganizing his trunk and it was obvious that he was pissed. He had somewhere to go....But, the friend's mom (where he claimed he wanted to sleep) did not mention her son doing anything weird that night (like saying he was at our house) so maybe I'm wrong.
Mainly, I don't know how to approach the info I shouldn't have (such as this party). I talk to him about drugs and drinking and stuff, but I think he thinks he is too cool and too invincible.
Haven't caught him yet.....which brings up another point (for another post?) about randomly testing for drugs/alcohol. I have tests and he knows it, but never used it. Also,I believe some of them may have used shrooms (mushrooms), and they don't show up in drug tests.
Help me, don't judge me. I worry every minute he is out of my house.

Although my son is younger than yours, I have managed to avoid this type of problem by not snooping on his computer.
