So i have this friend[he is 17] who used to drink and do drugs, but over the summer, he went to rehab, and his whole family and friends supported him 100%. he goes to church every sunday and wednesday, and does everything he can to be involved. he had everyone fooled. After rehab, he was really sticking it out, and doing the right things. But last week he had a relapse. He started to drink at a party and it got out of hand. He didnt go home that following morning, and his family was worried. I asked him where he was and he decided to lie to me like he had done so many times before. he said he was just sleeping over at friends, and nothing happend.
he had so many people fooled, but not anymore.
we can see right through him.
but my question is...
how should i confront him about his lie.
and drinking problem?
its really bothering a bunch of us.
Should we just march up to him and tell him straight up? but if we do that... he is gonna get really mad and start drinking even more.
or should we just kinda say something nicely..
and he will either lie about it, or not take it seriously....
he doesnt know i know about his drinking, he thinks i think of him as a good christian boy.
when really i can see right past his lies.
what should i do? (link)

Ok. . . .intervention that is the best way to confront him about his drinking and lying find actual solid proof that he is drinking and tell his family. .then suggest some form of intervention for him this may not be the easiest way but it is the BEST way. . . .and besides your not always supposed to take the easy way out right?

well thanks!
but his family already knows about this problem.
and hes only 17 and hes already been to rehab.
his family doesnt do anything about this problem.
they just tell him to stop, but he doesnt.
and i miss him.
the old him.
so i think ill just pull him aside an talk to him.
thanks!
