Just make sure you do your part and drill parental advice into that stubborn skull of his. I hate to say it, but your only hope right now is that he doesn't do anything dumb that would lead to devastating (or permanent) consequences. Either he'll wake up and realize that you're right and he's making a mistake, or he'll be better prepared the next time around. We've all been through that rite of passage - it's not fair to deny him that opportunity as well.

I've never been burned by a girl, per se, but there have been quite a few moments when my parents' voices suddenly echoed resoundingly in my head (like when I almost got kicked out of high school a week before graduation). It is that unfortunate period in his life when being his own person is the top priority, regardless of whether it's good for him or not.

Then it'll be that part of his life when nothing makes sense, of which my friend put it best: "Hey, look at me! I'm 20-something! I'm ironic about everything!"

I laughed so hard when he said that.
