Posting on here, as I have no one to talk to. DS is using weed every day. He can't /won't sleep at night and then sleeps until 1/2pm or later..Today he slept while 7.30 p m. He has ADHD and has not seen the neuro disability specialist for over 2 years , due to huge demand on the service.
He hasn't had any cash until recently.when he moved to universal credit and and that's where it has spiralled. I know where he's got weed from, It's an older adult relative of some kid he knows. He is in debt to the person for weed. I've told DS that I know everything and i have reported it.
Sadly, he will just get small amounts from other teenagers. His whole day revolves around it.
He's watching netflix all night. Should I take away the Firestick?.(It is mine). He also plays Minecraft all night. I can't turn off the WiFi because DH works from home and when we've don't that before it's messed up his work stuff.
I don't give DS any money but he continues to cause upset. He is now doing nothing (college finished in July) He is due to start a practical course but that won't start while the end of October. I feel.trapped with this situation because of his SEN.
