Sometimes its bad parenting but other times its the kid falling into a bad crowd. I knew a couple with four sons, three turned out great, but the youngest made a friend who was into pills in high school, he became abusive towards his parents. parents did everything they could, they moved him to another school, put him in therapy, for awhile things turned around for him but as soon as he graduated he left home and went back to his old friends and drugs. they offered to pay for rehab but he never went. he would break into their house and ended up in jail. it’s easy to judge a parent when you’ve never had to be in their shoes, i mean, after raising three older boys i am sure they never thought their youngest would become out of control.
