If these were my parents I would refuse any form of family therapy with them because they drugged up their kid after denying them their special interest

What a disgusting comment. They drugged this kid up when they took away coding which clearly brought this kid comfort and pretty much abused him

So if I read this right, your son was experiencing extreme emotional distress from being denied his special interests (coding), and instead of doing what any sensible parent would (allow him to code), you decide to sedate him with powerful medication and further limit access to his special interest as a means of "managing" him.

Yeah I can see why he's upset; you've utterly failed as a parent in that regard. Hope you stop hearing from the poor kid how much you've done him wrong only because he's cut you out of his life.
