Again, at 16 and 6’2, I can’t drag him places and make him do them.



I imagine that height disparity is tough on you right now. Can you begin every conversation by inviting or instructing him to “Sit down.” Wait until he does to continue speaking with him.

At the very least, you need to be able to look him straight in the eye to assert some authority in the situation. Remember that you are the giant here, not him.
