Hello Mark,
Grade 11 begins this week. The drugs are happening as we recently took our son's cell phone away and my husband and I looked through his messages last night and found drug deal info.
He already was taken out of school near the end of last year due to drug involvement. Neighbours are friends and also involved with "D" (we think mainly marijuana).
He is currently at a friends home for an overnight and we will be picking him up soon.
It is hard to know what to do next. Could you offer some concrete advice?
Thanks for your time,
K.
