Since your son is 15, by you asking him what it is you found, I 100% guarantee he will deny it is anything illegal. I did illegal drugs when I was 16, hardest stuff I could buy, and I denied it, my parents believed me. I guarantee you that if you found it in a little bag, it is illegal. It is called a "dime bag" it is used for illegal substances. It could be anything. It could be weed, heroine, spice, ecstacy, meth.....there is a whole list out there. A pharmacy is useless now, as if it is illegal, they cannot help.

I disagree with the previous comment. I would not go easy on the "poor lad." I do not think this person had dealt with substance abuse before. I am not sure this person has traveled down that path. If you do not face this head on, you could be setting your son (and yourself) up for a long, difficult path to travel down. You need to come down hard on him, do not take this lightly. If it happened once, it can happen again. And trust me, if you let it, IT WILL. I have done it, trust me, I KNOW.
