Someone asked about strewing for a teen. I wrote:
Your family needs to be interested and interesting. Go places. Bring things and people in. Visit friends of yours who have cool stuff or do interesting things. Ask him to go with you if you take the dog to the vet. Drive home different ways and take your time. Putz around. Go to the mall some morning when it's not at all full of teens, and windowshop.
If you can afford it, find something in another town like a play, concert, museum, event and take him there. Stay overnight.
Go touristing somewhere not too far from you. Like if you had out-of-town guests, but just go with your son.
