Step Son Drugs

My ss(16) just got his fist job at K-mart.
He wont pass the drug test.
Dad(husband) told him he needs to go to GNC and flush his system out.
He will probably pay for it with our money too.

How do I convince his dad that his is enabling him?

Get DH to join al anon so that an independent 3rd party can do the persuading for you. He will never sit up and listen unless it's a third party in my experience.

My nephew did one of those system flushes when he was out of jail on probation. Still didn't pass the drug test and his ass landed back in jail immediately. Bet your SS won't pass either.

I agree with the others. If you DH doesn't want to go to a meeting, find a friend who does go to AA or NA meetings. It's amazingly common and I bet between the two of you, you know a recovering addict. Talk to that person. Most people active in those organizations are generous with information and time. It's part of their own recovery.
