So my sons are now 17 and 15. Well the youngest turns 15 next week. I too worry about them, especially the younger one. His friends have changes somewhat, he recently hung up a pot leaf poster and Bob marley poster on his bedroom wall. I told him I didn't like it and was suprised that we would do this. He has been so anti drug his entire youth. He has seen the destructive power of addiction many times in our own family. He has always been somewhat over protective of me, especially since I returned from rehab in january of 2006. I know that he has the "choice" and in his mind he may have allready decided if he will try pot, or alcohol, or whatever. I question him, ask if a new friend is a user, ask him if he has tried anything yet. I know to smother him will only push him away, yet I try to keep him in check and talk about addiction and the damage in our community.
