Lou lou, you did nothing wrong, lets get that out the way first…I too live in a rural village and let me tell you, drugs are rife here too……He is at the age where doing what his peers are doing is the ultimate cool…..IF you have noticed things going missing then my guess is he has been doing this for longer than you think….and you may not want to hear this but I doubt its the first time… Facts, those who do drugs lie, steal, become aggressive…….I think you have done the right thing..contacting the school is great, because it will highlight that some of their pupils are partaking in drugs…..I would also get him to the doctors…. We have all been in your shoes, and facing it is hard…..believe me, those parents that dont think their child will ever do drugs or experiment, need a reality check… All we can do is try and educate our kids, be open with them, and if they do try drugs / get addicted don’t enable them and support them. He is a lucky lad to have a parent doing everything she can to help him….. take care x
