Take away priviledges- TV, mobile, playstation, hold off the spending money etc. Basically whatever he enjoys doing at home, which you've paid for, take it from him.

I honestly don't think I've ever shouted at my daughter when she was a teenager. She has done things she shouldn't have but after explaining how disappointed I've been with her she was the one in tears................

zzxxee - my 20 year old son still does the Kevin & Perry strop. He has just flounced out of the house, after picking yet another argument with me. He is a moody sod - if he was a girl, I would blame pre menstral tension. ( :0 (

Try 'alternative' punishments. If she's misbehaving then cut her hair when she's asleep. Whilst your drunk.
or
Feed her nothing but garlic, beans and sprouts for a week.
or
If all else fails go down the pyschological warfare route. Start telling her friends that she picks her nose and eats the results. Or, she still wets the bed.

Hope this helps :)
