My 15 year old boy is deliberately disobeying even our most lax rules. He has actively gone out of his way to meet up with friends, is not taking the pandemic seriously.


Some context, we have 3 other children at home. Two of which, have cystic fibrosis with compromised immune systems.He has proven to be responsible in the past with going on walks or bike rides in the neighborhood.But now, for the last 3 nights he has had major problems:On the first night, he went out and got into a fight at the closed park.Last night he asked to go on a jog, I specifically told him not to enter the park or be in close contact with others. Ended up going to watch a fight in the park with more than 30 people. Had to flee when the police arrived.I put him on home lock down today. Wife let him go to the corner gas station for a soda. He ended up riding 5 miles away to play basketball with friends at another closed park. Did not return home for almost 5 hours.I have no idea how to approach this. I know if I come down hard like I really want to, he may disappear entirely. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2VSW5b4
