My partner has a 17 year old boy. He lives with his mother and two siblings. They have a fabulous house and plenty of money and my partner admits that they have been quite lax with discipline and boundaries whilst their children have been growing up, He disliked school and did his GCSEs but pulled out of his A levels at sixth form because he just didn't want to go to school any more. His parents told him he would need to go onto an apprenticeship scheme if he was not going to continue in education. He's been on 3 interviews in 9 months (didn't get any of them and possibly even sabotaged them) and went on a training course which they chucked him off due to his attitude. He never gets out of bed, is completely demotivated when it comes to obtaining work and has now taken to going out until 6 in the morning and taking drugs. He had two interviews today which his father set up for him which needed him to be on the ball and to present to them. He went out last night and didn't get home until 6.30am.My partner is at his wits end with him and just doesn't know what to do next to motivate him to help himself. It may be that where he's well off, he feels like he doesn't need to make the effort. He is not sorry and makes no attempt to hide his drug taking. Does anyone have any advice?
