first let me say im 16 not 20 or whatever my sig thing says. ive been caught 4 times before. my mom thought i finally stopped becuase she drug tested me and i faked both tests. but i guess she didnt belive the test and searched my room and found all my pipes and what not. she took away my car and i have to go back to some shrink because they think somethings wrong with me. instead of smoking weed my mom is allowing me to smoke ciggs which i dont understand. I tried to explain to her, i study better when i smoke weed and helps me relax. she is extremely anti- weed because it made her paranoid in college. I have tickets to a concert tommarow night. she said shed let me go if i got the ok from my dad whos a dick and doesnt live with us. he smokes tons of weed and is just being a hypocrite by siding with my mom and making me stop smoking. how do i convince my mom to give me my car back and let me go to the concert.
Wait 2 years, move out... Your connection between your mom and you will only become stronger and you can live your life freely...
yup. quit being a bitch & man up. you don't need a car to get around, especially if your parents bought it for you
Your father has his reasons for being against you smoking. They might seem hippocrytical to you right now but when you mature and talk to your parents as an adult instead of a hormonal teenager. That is when you will understand so many things.
how am i being a bitch loochy? im just looking for advice, fyi i live in the middle of no where and if i cant drive i aint going anywhere
it's good that your parents don't let you smoke weed she only is doing it coz she loves you.. but i don't get the cigg thing
its somthing many peaple have to deal with( I did too) but really its yor parents house and u gotta play the kid game until your 18. just be a sneaky toker,and if she searches your room then consider hiding your shit better or mabye hiding it in an unorthadox spot outside your room(I dont know your specifif situation so w/e) anyway, but I find it unlikey you'll change your parent's minds
As a parent I do agree that you are too young to smoke weed or cigs for that matter. I also understand how your mother having a bad drug experience when she was in college would make her not want you to smoke. It was very tramatic for her I am sure. However, I would look forward to the fact that you will be able to smoke all you want when you get out. I will make one suggestion that you do sit your mother down and have a long conversation with her about it. Don't make it confrontational and just talk to her. Let her know how you feel and you can be lively in your discussion but do not yell. it's conunterproductive. I would make her a promise not to smoke weed while you live at home. You will live a long life and have all the time in the world to smoke later on.
yeah dude you're 16. take it easy for a couple of years and when you become an independent adult you can make all of your own decisions. honestly, you're still a kid with a lot of learning yet to do. your parents are just looking out for you.
I'd say show her studies that weed doesn't cause brain cells to die, doesn't cause cancer, might actually help stop damaged cells from multiplying and help prevent cancer, ect. And yes you are 16 and have to abide by your parents rules, but people here apparently forget what being 16 was like sometimes. You smoked pot at 16 guys, and you wouldn't stop for your parents either.
i didn't smoke at 16, but that's not the point. the problem is that at 16, if one isn't careful, it is easy to let marijuana take over more than it should by getting in the way of family, friends, a decent education and an active childhood. it's a responsibility thing, and based on the OP's first post, i'm not convinced he has the responsibility to not let marijuana get in the way of the more important things in life.
Keep smoking, don't do it under her roof if you want to respect her wishes. But honestly I wouldn't listen to my mom that much if she was ignorant enough to let you kill yourself with tobacco rather than smoke weed, hell.. I'd probably have to bitch slap her a few times for being so damn dumb. They're from another generation, they don't really know whats best for you. But if you don't think your responsible enough to get to college with weed, then don't.
what ever happened to sneaking off. or better yet go with ur dad and "get lost" for the concert. shouldnt be to hard
For sure, i totally agree, to me it sounds like your going through normal teenage stuff, in my opinion you should wait untill your more mature before you start smoking pot again.
Wow most people in this thread have been a dick to the OP. Yeah, that does sound shitty man, i remember when i got busted over a couple times my parents would then never trust me for months after, always be like, where are you going, you gonna do any drugs?i hope you find some way to get the concert, and just remember some day when you move out how awesome it will be where your parents cant bug the shit out of you
I agree magical,Damn give the kid a break.He was just asking for advice not MORE parenting....But dont do drugs they are bad.
And you forget at 16 you did not think like that and nothing would make you, at 16 you're invincible and nothing matters. Fuck all this trying to protect people shit, the best way to learn is let people make their own mistakes. It's just normal teenage rebellion Also, where the fuck is the OP not being responsible, he got caught, 90% of us have been caught but for most of us it wasn't that big a deal
thanks for all the replies. so what ended up happening was i talked to my shrink and he understood my situation. I was allowed to go to the concert which was off the hook. im not being drug tested anymore and i guess i have more freedom than i did before i got busted again, which seems a little weird. I also got my car back. but i made a promise to myself im going to cut back on smoking a lot. Im gonna stop until the cypress hill concert on oct. 28th. and occasional school field trips. But i realize that im still growing and its kind of stupid to smoke as much weed as i have for the last 3 years. I have the rest of my life to smoke like someone recently posted which makes a lot of sense. I actually have been smoking legal herb, this stuff called chillin chillin or something. It felt almost exactly like weed (without the munchies). I was wondering if thats like cheating if i wanna stop smoking weed because they were so similar. Also, i want to have a long tolerance break for the cypress hill concert, and would this legal herb shit make a difference? i know its not weed and doesnt have thc but i was just curious.
