Sorry you're going through this, Florence. Your son is 14. From ages 12-18 I wanted to do whatever the hell I wanted when I wanted. His behavior is not indicative of a broken relationship with you. He's a teenager and will try to take the easiest way out because that's what they do.
I think you've made the right decision. Down the road he will thank you for the good education and structure you've provided. There's no doubt in my mind that he knows you love him. Deep down that's what matters. Hang in there! xo
