update on telling parent of drug use
| Thu, 04-19-2007 - 4:57pm |
Well I sent my e mail, after several revisions...thats why I always let them sit awhile before I send something like that. I just realized if it were my son I would want to know, just so I could keep a careful eye out if nothing else. She appreciated my concern and had already suspected that he was using drugs. She is a really great Mom to her kids, and I know she will deal with him when he is home for the summer. He has alot of respect for his Mom and doesn't like to disappoint her, so I am hopeful that he will turn around and come to his senses. Thank you to everyone for your opinions and advice.

Glad it worked out the way it should.
Just curious...What did your DD think of your informing his mom?
When I ask DS to be open with me about drugs/alcohol, or that he can call me anytime to give him or his friends a ride home if someone cannot drive, he says, "But you'd tell their parents, right?" And I have to answer, "Yes, because it is illegal and I do not want them to later get in trouble with the school, and informing the parents will help prevent that." So, of course, DS tells me very little about those illegal behaviors among his friends.
