    Hey folks! I got caught a few weeks ago, long story short, I was stupid about it and my mom caught me. So when she caught me she went into this whole thing about how she was dissappointed with me for doing it, and especially for not telling her about doing it (I did tell her I had tried it, but she was probably referring to me going behind her back and doing it).

    So when she caught me we had this like hour long conversation (during which I was stoned out of my damn mind, I don't know how she even took me seriously hahaha), in which I asked what her problem was with me smoking, not in a disrespectful way, I mean to be honest I genuinely felt bad about it, my mom has a way of doing that haha. She was upset with my dishonesty etc, usual mom stuff. She is a bit of a hypocrite though, I mean I asked if she smoked and she said yes, and I know my dad did when he was in college, so there's that all laid out, but I still feel like I betrayed them.

    Here's my moral dilemma, I love smoking, I love the way it makes me feel, but I was definitely abusing it, everyday is a little too much. My guilt is killing me though, I hate disappointing my mom, haha that sounds so cheesy. I'm not really looking for a solution, just if anybody can relate, like if you genuinely felt bad after getting caught.

    no because there's nothing for you to feel bad about.

    there is nothing wrong with cannabis. I would much rather smoke once a day than have 1 glass of wine a day. Your mother is simply ill-informed, Is she a open type as in is she easily suggestable? beacause if thats the case than you should stand a good chance of being able to get her to absorb so pro MJ facts.

    don't feel bad. You are useing a plant that grows because nature wants it to. What does the plant do for you? Makes you happy and relaxed. This plant can not kill you, and at most could be a health risk because you inhale smoke. What is the harm? You have to be your own person, you can't worry about mom. YOU are the only one who can decide.

    don't let her guilt trip ya into feeling bad about doing something that is perfectly natural.
    you're an adult, and you can choose to smoke weed!

    sounds like my story (won't go into that) except my mom thinks its the devil and hes gonna make you want to try other drugs and shit. only thing i can stay is tell em u don't do any other shit and its not a gateway drug and your totally smart and responsible after smoking (hard but possible) Hey atleast you don't have to hide a zong and a sherlock out in your bushes with the bugs, cuz your mom completely searches all your shit, just to find out hey he's still smoking......I wonder fucking why?

    My parents did sort of the same thing, and grounded me for 2 months when they found out I had been smoking behind their backs. I thought they had gotten to me after a while because I didn't smoke for 4 months after that whole fiasco. Then I smoked again and I felt fucking liberated. I made a choice that felt right to me and I really enjoyed myself that night with my friends.

    Basically, I'm saying if it makes you happy, go ahead and do it. Being scared of your parents is much worse than getting in trouble for smoking.

    If you really are 20 though, maybe you should move out? Your mom would be much less of a problem and it would prove to her that smoking isn't holding you back in any way.

    moral dilemma? it just sounds like you're tied to your mother's apron strings. everyone is uncertain sometimes, but maybe you'd get a little more out of life if you would stop feeling guilty when you haven't hurt anyone.

    Its likely she got so upset because she feels like she should have suspected you of getting high, but you caught her by surprise. Parents want to believe that we would know if our child did something like that, but we also remember what we got away with our parents. So, its a tricky situation.

    The simple solution is to not be high around your parents, and if you live with them move out. If your parents dont smoke weed I doubt they are thrilled it is in their home, so best keep it away. You did disappoint your mom, but she'll get over it. I am sure some days she disappoints you. It happens, so don't stress it.

    That same thing happened to me. When i was in 9th grade i got caught in jan smoking. I told her i tried it a few times but it didnt sit well when they found half oz in my room. I quit all together for about 5 or 6 months cuz they threatened with drug tests(which they did once and i passed). Then i slowly got back into it. I did it like once a month and at concerts. Gained their trust back and you stop feeling guilty after a while.

    Dude, sorry to burst your bubble, but smoking weed once a day is worse than a glass of wine a day. The alcohol is so low that it doesn't do much, whereas a smoke is, well, a smoke. Maybe 5 shots of booze a day, but not a glass of wine. If it's red wine, its actually good for you lol.
