I'm a first time poster so please bear with me. My DS is 16 soon and we have been struggling for a few months with his behaviour. He has 'tried' weed on a number of occasions, has had underage sex and been a general pita. We have recently found out he's also been smoking for a couple of months - this has really shocked us as we are very anti smoking after losing a couple of close family members to smoking related cancer. He knows this and promised to stop only to come home stinking of fags obviously still smoking. I'm struggling to see past this I know he's a good lad underneath and is doing ok at school but I can't get over his lying and I'm not convinced he's still not doing weed. His birthday is coming up - do we make a big fuss of him as usual and let him have a house party or do we come down hard on him and let him take the consequence of his recent behaviour?
