Bad Fridays - 2006/08/24 23:06 I think that my boy is using drugs when he goes out with his group of friends on Fridays. He misses curfew a lot and seems disoriented when he returns. I don’t have a clue what type of substance he may be abusing with his buds but he seems to be losing weight. I was thinking of following them one Friday night when they go out, but I’m not quite sure if this is the best solution.

Re:Bad Fridays - 2006/08/24 23:07 As a parent, you have a right to confront your son about his actions and question him face-to-face about his curious behavior. Disorientation and loss of weight are some signs of drug abuse, but you will have to find out more in order to have enough knowledge of the detrimental situation he may be in. Before you even try sneaking around to figure out more, talk to him. Ask everything you need to ask. If he reacts with defiance and keeps mum about the situation, then you may proceed with other more intrusive actions.
