Re: juvenile problems
The answer to your question is hard to predict. Since your son has been in rehab, there are agency people you can contact with whom to discuss your situation. You may not want to call your son's behavior to the attention of the officials any more than it has been, but you would be protecting yourself, and maybe even him, to do so.
