Standing up for what you believe in.

Standing up for what you belive in is a very good thing, but it to easy to say and hard to do. I believe that Marijuana is a good plant with many benifets that are good for your health and good for the world (hemp).

My mom knows I toke, but she would rather me quit till I'm 18 and then start toking again whem I am an adult, but my Dad is really against it I think. He asked me once if I was doing "stupid shit" at my friends house when my friends dad was busted. I said no, I lied and for that I ask God to forgive me, but I wanted to say "Yes I smoke Marijuana and I believe that it is not harmful in any way.".

That was about 6 or more months ago.

My Dad and I have never really been close, I mean that my mom and dad haven't gotten a divorce and that I see my dad a little every day before he goes to work and I see him on the weekends when he doesn't work, but he does work alot most of the time. But he is still my dad and I don't want him to hate me, but I want him to accept me for who I am.

I want to tell my dad that I toke and stand up for something that I belive in, but it is hard to do because I don't want him to be dissappointed, plus he would probaly kill me metaphoricaly (sp?) speaking.

I just wonder how it would change my life and how it would impact me. I feel like I am not free sometimes, but I am also almost an adult.

I'm sorry that I'm rambling on, I guess all I was trying to say is that I want to tell my dad, but yet I don't want too. My dad is the only one I don't want finding out about it, other wise I would walk down the street smoking a joint.

Please give me some advice on this, whatever it may be. Your own personal experience or your wisdom on the subject.

Thank you!

my parents both toke up, and they don't know i do, at least i think so.
i've gotten kind of caught a few times, like they found bud downstairs, and the garage door was like slightly open.
but there's a lot of times where i want to tell them, because maybe, just maybe, they'd be cool with it.
but i remember my dad told me that if i wanted to smoke weed, to wait until i had a job and all that.
i probably won't have a job, ever, other than musician, but yeah.
he told me that right before i watched half baked with my friend.
so yeah, i KIND of have the same problem.

 

You have a problem like mine, but you have so much more freedom in it. Your 27 and both your mom and dad toke, to me it looks like they would probaly smoke a joint with you. But your decision to tell them is yours.

I asked my dad about Marijuana one time and asked him why he thought that is was illegal and he said "Because they can't tax it.". So I think that he doesn't like it because it is illegal, but I don't know for a fact. I guess I'm looking for a way to bring it up with him.

I think my dad might know, because of my interests in movies such as Cheech and Chong, Jay and Silent Bob, and lets not forget Harold and Kumar. Plus before I toked I wanted a shirt with a huge pot leaf on it, but he said that he didn't want people thinking that I'm a "stoner" and bought me a shirt with lots of tits on it instead.

I'd rather be known for a stoner then a pervert any day, but thats just me lol.

 

eh, i'm not twenty seven though, only fifteen.
i just put some random ass number.

 

Lol, thats cool don't worry about it.

Still though, it does seem that you have it real good though. Hey be happy, atleast your parents toke too, lol.

 

yeah, i swoop some of their bud most of the time, i use their bong sometimes too.
lol.

 

god huh?

 

It's your dad's issue whether he would accept you or not. Not yours. Don't let it dominate your life so much. Wait until you are 18, and then have a talk about it with him. And I basically guarantee you he knows you smoke. Wearing a shirt with a MJ leaf on it is a pretty big hint lol.
