My teenage son is very defiant

My teenage son is very defiant

My teenage son will not mind what I tell him. He speaks to me as if I were one of his peers. Using arrogant,argumentative, posturing. His comments are very sarcastic. I have tried using a behavior modification based on redirecting, rewarding, and replacing behvavior.
What else could I do?

Your decription of your approach is too general for me to respond. Can you offer more specific guidance about how you approach this behavior? I might be able to give you some options, but I need a bit more information. Also, it's important to indicate if his life outside the home is positive - i.e., whether he's doing OK in school, if his friendships are positive, etc.
