Kelitta, it seems like you're doing everything you can do already. If he's seeing a pyschologist hopefully that will help.

Does he have any disorders? ADHD, OCD, anything else? Has there been a major change in his life recently, a divorce, the death of a loved one? Has he always been like this or is this recent?

Many things can contribute to a child's behavior. My suggestion is to punish him when he lies or misbehaves. Take away a favorite video game, or a cell phone etc. Deny privileges, or grounding. I know that it sounds trite, but these things do work, you just need to be consistent.

I wish I could help more.

Good luck.

It sounds like classic drug involment. Has he ever been tested for drugs?
Don't beat yourself up, it sounds as if you are doing a lot for him.

I have a step son that does the same, we have taken everything possible off him and he still persists that he has done nothing wrong and continues to lie and steal, there is even times when he will just do what he wants to do even though he has been given a time limit - and that is not all he has broken into my house and lied about that as well. So Kelitta you can see that you are not the only one that is going grey early. My boys have had enough and don't want any part of him anymore. Thanks Berry
