You're quick to defend yourself. How do you know it's not a parenting issue?
I have no idea if it is or isn't, but I know more times than not, it is. It could simply be because you did get a divorce.
FYI, there are studies that say that little boys raised without fathers often go through a serious rebellion / trouble phase. This could be the start of his. I went through it for several years. Girls without dads turn into sluts and whores, getting with bad boy after bad boy. That's just the way it is.
Here is what you do if you simply refuse to think you may have an issue with being a parent:
Someone already said it, but make him sit down and smoke packs of cigs in a small room. Let him get sick from it. Let him puke. Feel his lungs burn.
Then ask him why he is smoking and why he is a fuck up. My bet is because his dads not around. Could just be bad friends. Either way, you need to find out.
If you catch him again. Make him smoke a carton of cigs. Then take EVERYTHING away from him and ground him for a few months. After that and he wants to smoke, let him. He already sounds like he is on his way to being a fuck up, 12 years old and suspended from school... maybe it's just his path. Sometimes good parents have fucked up kids.
