Holy shit I live speed!

Well as the father of six, oldest 26, youngest 10, I also know a thing or two about kids.
I have always been honest with my kids about my past and drug usage/abuse as well as the type of people I used to associate with.
Ever see the show Sons Of Anarchy?, Hard core bikers, thats the type of people I dealt with and hung with when I was late teens/early twenties.
Thing is by being honest with my kids and sometimes even an asshole, none of them are chugging cough syrup to get high.

Some people need to be told rather bluntly that they are fucking up thier lives and could easily end up dead.
I finally woke up after seeing 2 heroin OD's, severe and brutal violence, one time resulting in death, and many, many, many drug casualties.
I finally came to the realization that I would end up dead if I continued on that lifestyle. At the time I thought I had it all under control, was having a good time, until I watched some one get beat to death with a pool cue.
I started out as many do, just having fun, much as ganggang is.
So forgive me for being an asshole, but I've seen/heard the same before, and it didn't always end well.

 

Dont hate on the weed. (in my opinion) weed is the last drug u need to worry about. Im mean i really dont think its addicting. I mean REALLY addicting. U can quit but u will miss being high and it will drive u a lil bit crazy, but its not literally addictive. And with any! drug if u are in a negitive/hostile environment it will fuck with you, Like Acid (LSD) and ecstasy (MDMA) you will have a bad trip if you are in a negetive environment. I really dont think weed is bad. How many people has anyone know that they can say o yeah my friend died from smoking weed, or he O-D'ed on weed. I mean i have never heard of it, for me maybe i can believe that....well idk lets say someone was smoking and they got a monkey fart or a scooby snack (the weed that flies back into your throat) and choked or hacked up so much there lungs collapsed. Thats something i can believe. But dont get me wrong i didnt say it was impossible. idk how much experiance u have with weed cuz 2 years doesnt mean anything u can smoke for 2 years and not know the first thing about weed, but u could be right but i guess no one will ever know for sure. :sifone:

 

Dude alright what do you want me to say? Because I'll say it if we can just stop fighting about this, I understand you are just giving advice from what happened to you.. And I mean I'm sorry.. I said it like twice in my last post.. I'm sorry, I just got carried away because.. I dunno. And I know a few of those people who are stuck with a needle in their arm and its definitely nothing I EVER wanna get involved with.. EVER. Your not being an ASSHOLE, but I took it bad and it was offensive.. But I guess that was the point because you just wanted to get the message across.. Still dude I really am sorry for going off on you like that all the time I really just want a clean start honestly.. Just I need you all to trust that I won't become a drug addict.. Ever. Lol I swear to god, it is the last thing I want, yeah I'm curious about the hardcore ones.. But fuck em.

 

No need to apologise to me. Just be careful and KNOW what you are doing and don't be so desperate for an altered state of conciousness that you do stuff like od on cold medicine and shit like that.
:cheers2:

 

pb-
1. that would fall under the first category i mentioned, the one where the person has a certain level of domination over their life and a positive lesson to teach.

2. no need for me to forgive you. i'm quite an asshole at times, and sometimes it can be necessary, as you said. i just don't think it was helpful under these circumstances. i'm sure you had plenty of people confronting you with information the same way when you were younger, and it took a personal realization for you to change.

luv- weed is addictive after long-term use and makes boredom ok- boredom that might otherwise convince someone to change their patterns and do something more with their lives.

 

Your right, but I mean I'm not gonna defend myself really anymore about all this.. I don't really wanna keep arguing about it right now because I don't know, I'm in a good mood. And its okay if you don't always politely reason with me, I can be a bitch sometimes for no reason.. Don't know why, just sometimes I just wanna hit something and accidentally go off on someone for some stupid reason.. Every does that though, I'm just sorry about all this lol this thread turned out to be way longer than I was expecting it to be

 

I'v been smoking since I was 14 and im 20. im just saying there was a period during those 6 years that I smoked everyday allday for 2 years straight. I was high at work, school, even smoked a fat blunt before bed, and even smoked sometimes when i'd wake up in the middle of the night to go pee. so I smoked way to much haha.

 

Thank you. And I try to KNOW what I'm doing, and I know I'm not THAT desperate, but I like to just get fucked up sometimes I have too admit.. Like why else would I drink alcohol? Or anyone really.. I mean its fun, but it just puts you in a different place for awhile and thats always nice.. Hell if I really need it that bad I just read a book or something or just go to bed and skip the rest of the day.. But I won't I promise I would never wanna take anywhere near that much cough medicine to OD anyways.. That would be a nightmare!

 

Lol I know a few people like that, but thats probably what fucked up your brain so much man lol, I mean I only smoke a couple bowls a day if that. Some days there are exceptions of course, but damn lol that must have been expensive too unless you grew or something

 

That would be making the rather erroneous assumption that I practice an "extremely dominating control" over my children. My relationship with my children is based on honesty and trust, not domination. I find it is much more conducive to their growth. But then again, my kids also don't come at me with knee-jerk reactions of rebellion as you assume all teens do.

 

I won't end up dead, there is no way to convince you because I mean whether I try or not I don't know you personally and you don't know me.. I really am not joking when I say that either.. And I never heard about anyone dying SO FAR, and I hope to god I won't have too.. I'm sure one of my junky friends will do it someday though..

And what do you mean by that? Why were people getting beaten to death? That is one of the reasons I am generally scared to get into drugs too much anyways, gangs, fights.. Fuck it all, I'm weak.. Seriously I am skin and bones I couldn't REALLY fight anyone and win if I tried and thats what scares the hell out of me because in St. Louis its just all so messed up with the whole meth deal we have down here.. Its all just terrible, so I sit here as a harmless stoner with mostly all my friends being the same way except for a few. But seriously I don't wanna sound all hippie.. But fuck why the hell does everyone fight all the time??? Like physically.

i didn't assume that all kids do that.... i assumed that it happens quite frequently among the human race in general and is more likely among teenagers, because their frontal lobes are still under construction while their limbic systems are fully functional.

you're their parent, so yes, you have always had a level of dominant control over them. maybe that's just a word you don't like, but it fits, even if you are a very relaxed and open parent.

if your kid went to go and drink some drain cleaner, you would slap it out of their hands and likely have a very emotional, dominating reaction, as is natural and in fact, necessary.

this is all i meant to imply. your kids understand that you are in charge, and give your opinions more thought than those of other adults, so you are in a different position to give them advice.

when not dealing with your own kids, it might make more sense to give the kid a reason to respect your opinion-unless you are more concerned with feeling right than making a difference.

 

this has gotten a little out of hand and i have become guilty myself of just wanting to be right...... i'm going to back off now.

op- still here if ya ever need any advice or to vent.

 

PB_Smith: Peace & Love

That is all I have been trying to say all along, but I admit at times I'm as smooth as 20grit sandpaper.

 

Well lets just say that after a night of drinking/drugging you don't just help yourself to someone else's Harley to get home and then ditch it in an alley.

It was just supposed to be an ass-whooping to drive the point home to this moron that took it and it got WAY out of hand.
Thats what Jack Daniels and meth can do for ya.
After that night I started to have a lot less to do with that crowd of people and drugs in general. Actually scared the fuck out of me and had me looking behind my back for a long time after.

 

Thankyou and right back at ya

 

I still gotta apologize I got a little out of hand, but I dunno.. And thats good thats how I am always anyways and I think thats what we were fighting about lol I'm not always, but most of the time unless I'm fighting

 

SCREW SPEED! This is terrible. I can't fall asleep and I feel like poop now. :/
