MY TEEN SON DOES NOT WANT ANY COUNSELING?

(PORT ELIZABETH, SA)

My 16 year old son tested positive for TIK and DAGGA during a random drug test done at school. He was suspended for 3 days. He went for counseling last year and I thought he was doing good for the last couple of months...he almost seemed his old self again.

I am angry, disappointed and sad at the same time. The school requires that I have written confirmation that he is in a programme but he refuses to go for any counseling because he feels that he can handle this.

I have insisted that he goes to counseling or consider rehab but he wants to hear nothing. He has not used for the last 11 days.

What do I do?
