If you are his dad and not his buddy, when he grows into adulthood he'll make a good friend for you. But if you start out as pals, I don't think he'll respect you much when he gets older.
I abused a whole pharmacopeia until I got old enough to own stuff and thus, to be scared of being caught. It's a dumb waste of money and risk, but some knuckleheads refuse to see the obvious stupidity of their own behavior. Hope your kid isn't that looney. But regardless, you have to stand firm. Your house, your rules, everybody obeys.

Like I said to him today, he can smoke all the pot he wants when he turns 18 and decides to move out on his own. Until then, he needs to realize that he has got to stay out of trouble.
Do you think it's normal to think " I don't want to be here" when you get caught?
I remember getting in trouble and saying, $hit, I better not do this again, but never suicide.
