Dealing with Parents & Marijuana

I came home a bit stoned today and my dad overheard me having a conversation in which i mentioned being messed up. So he came in the room while I was on the computer and had a talk with me. It was so awkward and strange. He's not angry about it but he did express that he was concerned. How do you guys react to this?

 

Teach him what you know about the drug, let him know its not a BAD thing, ask him if he wants to smoke up sometime, depending on how he takes that..haha.

 

Respect the fact that he is concerned, tell him that it is not something that you will be doing all the time. Dont ask him to smoke with you now, if he wasnt really cool about it and was worried about you i doubt he would. It would just make him worry more. Try to not come home messed up alot. If he didnt flip out and you arent high all the time it will be fine

 

Don't fuck up in school and you'll be fine.

 

yes exactly. (i live with grand dad) i'v been smoking for about 3 years now and my gramps had a problem with it till recently. last year i was caught twice with marijuana related shit at school and that fucked me up. but since then i havnt had a problem with it. he doesnt really care anymore as long as i don't do stupid shit like that in school. grades included

 

god im so glad im over all that with my parents, i told em i wouldnt fuck up in school (and i havnt) and they cant exactly stop me, both are ex druggies and my dad still smokes pot too, so .. yay ^^

 

Same here, I told them I wouldn't fuck up in school. Though I still will go to class stoned everyday, but that ain't no thang. And that I wouldn't come home shit-fucked. My dad still smokes pot on ocassion, so he is pretty cool with it.

 

yeah me and my dad smoke up occasionally, its pretty cool, even my mum knows about it all although shes so anti nowadays its weird smoking around her lol

 

my parents were very against it for as long as i can remember. mainly because they knew nothing about it, neither of them ever having tried it. (and no, theyre not bullshitting me, i have it from reliable sources) so i would just bring up random statistics and facts about smoking in every day conversation, eventually it turned into having conversations about weed/the war on drugs/government and all that shit. now we sort of have an unspoken agreement between us where theyll pretend to not know until i make it blatantly obvious. i dont know if that makes sense or not. but you get the idea.

 

my dad's kinda the same, except he just recently turned into an anti guy. fuck him tho.

 

yeah same here, me and my dad will light one up when my mother is away for the weekend or something, otherwise it's unspoken

 

both my parents would go nutts if they cought me again- but then thats y i always stay one step ahead- so its ok :S

 

exactly the same as me, especially with my dad. my mom's a little more against talking about it *at all*... as if, if i don't talk about/know anything about it, i won't do it. what the fuck ever. i've been caught a few times with weed and my mom found out about me doing coke. she went through my friend's bookbag while he wasnt looking and started reading his letters, and in one i mentioned that i was quitting coke. she just makes me want to get high. idk why, i think i feel like i have something to prove to her. like, "look, i can smoke weed and be a bigger success than you ever were"... i don't know...

 

I've been tokin with my parents for about 3yrs now...........it's way better not tryin to hide it. Now we can just pack a bowl and pas it around!!

basically

 

exactly the same with me and my parents! cool

 

my mum used to smoke but she wants to be a responsible parents so she's fine with me smoking as long as i'm not stupid about it (leaving my shit everywhere, fucking up in school, doing other harder drugs etc.)

 

My parents have caught me many times, and each time ive gotten in a shitload of trouble since they think its the worst thing ever. So i just go to my friends house where his mom is so lax about it. We baked out their garage, she walked in and says, "smells good in here" and left. Then later asked us never to do that again...Just go out on the porch and do it haha, since we were getting the dog high

 

oh yea, and i kno for a fact my dad used to smoke since i found about 3 zips(oz) in his freezer when i was getting ice, i asked him and he denied it to my face...sure dadddd

 

dude i wish i had a mom like that, mines the most naive person ever
