my 17yr old son has just been asked to leave his AS level course - he has tho applied for anew course.
I have not given him an allowance /pocket money but monies for things- he has had a small job- I get clothes bus pass etc.thinking this has been a mistake really - his dad also gives him money .not sure how much.
but he lies about money- used my card and taken from my wallet.

not sure if I give him a pocket money now this is rewarding his behaviour? also I have said to get a summer/wknd job...as I did when young. confused which way to go- have told him off for all lying etc but not punished him.mmmnn how?

any suggestions on best course of action-im confused!
