My Parents=Anti-Pot

marijuana is a key element in my life. i mean it love smoking reefer. my parents are completeley against. more so my dad then my mom cuz she treid it once in highschool but she took one hit coughed and quit so she didnt get high so she claims she didnt like it. i even did a book trade with my dad where i reAD a loius l'amoure western for him and he read jack herers the emperor wheres no clothes for me. he is almost finished with it so i dont know what is in his mind. i have been making straight A's in school. I sarted smoking cigs in 8th grade and they never really cared about it they told me to stop but once they realized i wasnt gonna my mom started buying me packs and my dad jsut ignored it. i have a read a couple peoples stories on how their parents accept that they smoke bud and want them in the hosue when they do it in in a safe environment. i make straight A's in school and bud doesnt affect my judgement much or my motivation.does anyone know of ideas they used on their parents to get them to accept that bud is a good thing not a bad?

 

theres not much you can do to convince people, especially parents, who are anti drug. theyre not going to change their mind. keep it to yourself. and dont give them anything they can blame on the weed. dont fuck up.

 

Wait until they catch you (if they do), and when they do, just hit them with a lot of cold hard facts, and keep some research handy at all times. =)

 

I have a the curse of the father who made a complete ass of hislef for 20 years smoking so my mom (the boss of the two) wont let me smoke.

 

The reason those people's parents are cool with them smoking are either

a) they smoked when they were younger or still do or had smoker friends, and hence know that it's just another risky thing people do for kicks, like alcohol or cigarettes or sex, and that kids should figure it out for themselves with support and sometimes guidance

or b) they're just incredibly cool parents who are level headed enough to know that they can't stop their kid from doing things they want to, so they can just hope to support and guide them

or c) simply don't give a shit

I'd suspect your parents are like half in the B) column cuz yur mom buys u cigs (yur mom buys u cigs?!?) and your dad read that book. so all you can really do is just be as sneaky and low-key and non-blatant with it as possible, so they'll just ignore it cuz its not making itself apparent.

You will never ever get them to accept that weed is a good thing. Even ex-hippie parents don't think weed is a good thing for their kids, they know they can't really do anything about it, but they have some old friends who went burnout and they hope it doesn't happen to their kids.

The most you can hope for is that they just let it go and ignore it, so just keep it on the low and like Pat said, don't fuck up

 

So do you still smoke?

 

u will never be able to convince them to let you smoke let alone smoke in your house just be happy that your mom buys you cigs i mean my dad smoked pot for the last 25 year but he quit 9 months ago and he i scompleately against it now so there nothin you can relly do just dont fuck up

 

haha your dad is whipped

but jointman on your parents, dont ever let them know you smoke. would my parents let me? probably not, but im not stupid enough to ask either

 

my parents know i've smoke the herb and been cool with it. they know i own a bong, which is full display in my room and know that when i have parties at ht ehouse, people smoke weed. they're pretty cool. i even smoked with my dad once or twice about two years ago..ha

 

i told my mom it was legal in amsterdam(even though i dont think it really is i think its just tolerated.) she said since it was legal there she wouldnt care if i smoked up and she even told me since my brother got a brand fuckin new car for graduation even though he had shitty grades that they will fly me to amsterdam for graduation cuz i make strate As now ( im in 10th grade) and if i continue to make strate As they might fly me and my girlfriend. my parents are wierd like that though. i know my dad would toke if it was legal cuz he gets stressed from work. and i know i would be able to convince my mom to. My girlfriends parents are mad cool with it. too bad i live in TX and she lives in VA. her mom lets me order shit off the internet an dget it sent to their house and repackages it for me(so my parents dont see me recieving boxes from say www.grasscity.com) and she is mad cool she doesnt buy bud but if someone offers to smoke her up she will gladly accept. she told me recently that when i visit for Xmas that she would toke with me. but yeah thanks for the advice guys.

 

When I was much younger I remember my dad telling me "If pot were legal, you could smoke all the live long day, I don't care but don't ever smoke cigarettes." We don't really talk about it now, but I think he knows. All I can say is, the difference in reaction from your parents is VASTLY different from 16-17 to 19-21. Raising an adult really changes their perspective a lot, at least enough to back off. Alls I can say is, you gottta respect the rules of the house unless you want to pay the mortgage.

 

I am a mother who smoked with her daughter. When my daughter turned 16 she was allowed to smoke and drink at HOME or approved places. Yes I smoke. The way I figured is that at least it was controlled at home. She was not out partyin then getting in a car with someone who shouldn't be driving.

The rules of the house was:
1) Only at home or I had to know the parents and know what was going to happen.
2) No getting in cars with anyone who has been smoking or drinking.
3) Nothin but weed when it came to drugs. Which she only did only smoke weed.
4) If her friends came over it had to be okay with their parents. Yes I talked to the parents to make sure ( I had to cover my butt)

It worked out well for us. I am still smoking, she is not. She is married, has a good job, and a very sweet baby who is a year old. So it can work out, but your parents have to learn that your smoking won't control your life. I will do some research and post some points to help you young people.

 

I hope my kids have more sense than to do something that can potentially give them a criminal record, block them from getting aide to go to college, screw up their chances at employment, possibly lose their parents home, and endanger the freedom of themselves, their family and their friends.
As an adult parents have more to lose (their home, careers and children to name a few)...as someone yet to aquire those things sometimes it's hard to understand just how much they cherish ya and don't want to see you in prison over something so trivial as drugs (something you have the option of doing or not).


Is it really worth it just to get high?
I mean, c'mon, it's pot, not crack, you don't HAVE to do it, you won't get dope sick if ya don't have any.

The righteous thing to do if you must endanger yourself, is not to endanger your parents and siblings as well, they'll miss you enough if you're in jail. Don't bring drugs or pipes into their home EVER. They can lose everything including you.

 

okay, two words... fuck you

its a stupid law and that makes it okay to break. and getting busted for weed dosent destroy your life. loose your parents home? what the hell are you talking about?

 

stay the fuck outta the forum dickhead u dont know shit! try some info sites before u come at us potheads wiuth ur bullshit and propaganda and lies. like underground said

FUCK YOU

 

I didn't make the law that says you can't get college financial aid if you've been convicted of a drug offense.
You can't get welfare either, but hopefully you'll never need it.
And yes they can confiscate your parents car, home and just about anything else if the drugs are linked to them (ie. on their property).

All you have to do is show your parents enough respect as to not endanger them by bringing the drugs home.

The real question is, which do you value more, your family or your drugs?

I know the laws suck, but there's reality too, and we all live in it, even when high.

 

show me where you get ur information and i will be the first one to admit being wrong. THAT IS BULLSHIT they could not take your parents property all they can do is arrest the person whos shit it was. if the parents have weed and shit or knew about it then they could arrest them but i dont thinkt hey can take their property unless they are are big time dealers that dealer with high amounts of pounds.

above is a link that states about 6 paragraphs down that while the law is supposed to be against dealers that it is effecting misdemeanor and 1st time offenders now.

I'm sure if you look furthur you'll find more in depth research. I don't have time right now...I have research of my own to do.

I'm not trying to tell you what to put into your body or not..as long as you don't do it in my house I couldn't give a fuck... I'm just trying to keep ya from losing all your shit to the government, they have enough already.

 

LAlalalalalalala!!!!!! I can't hear you!

yes, kiddies. she is correct in her facts.

 

Tell that to the judge man. Like it or not, that is the law, and you gotta realize that. I don't agree with it, but I keep it in mind when I'm tokin up so I don't screw myself or my family. I don't know about the confiscation part, I'm pretty skeptical of it, but y'all need to calm down.
