They have been picked up leaving a party high, returned him home after 24 hours without me knowing where my son was and I reported him as a runaway. Tried to file no contact, but judge said it did not fit. At a loss, in counseling, trying to get him admitted to in-house rehab, failing grades, disappearing, fights and trouble with siblings. Been going on for several months and hit dead ends at every turn. Please help, desperate.
