If he screwed up and I was trying to make a point I would. Not to abuse him but to let him know he screwed up and I think he is and asshole for it, sure.

Never.

That's the kind of thing that damages a person permanently. If the father calls a son an asshole, then that father might abuse with worse words at a later date without regret.

When my 17 year old son deserves it, yes, by all means. I still love him.
