I'm new to group and cafemom. I have a 14 year old son who lives with me that just started high school. We just moved to a new town, just bought a house, and I just remarried after 7 yrs of being single. I get no help from his father on trying to raise this kid with having respect, doing well in school, and ALL other issues that matter. I can't seem to get across to him the importance of his education. He is far below his reading level and I have enrolled him in Sylan Leaning Center (cost me $4470). I am trying to everything I know to help him so he will have a fighting chance in life. He is also in a special program at school that offers NEW program 180 degrees. I just learned tonight he hates the teacher and has already been warned that he will be kicked out of her class if his attitude does not improve.

And what have you done as far as discipline since he was small?
