Replies SpRiNgS Posted at 12:00 am on Dec. 5, 2008 Well I had a past experience like this, except a few differences. I had come home from getting high, changed my shirt and stuff when my dad came into my room wanting to talk. I wondered if he wanted to bust me but then again he just wanted to tell me how glad he was to have a son like me and basically lather me with praise and talk about how he tells all his friends about his son, his responsible, never do wrong son. I was in fucking tears after he said all that, just sitting there, crying. He left the room before he saw me crying though, and right there I realized I should stop. I stopped, and told him about it, and we talked. He was mad, but he was glad I talked to him like a man about it in short, talk to your mom about it, you're still her son/daughter (don't know anonymous) so i'm sure she'll be willing to listen Rikk Posted at 11:18 am on Dec. 4, 2008 Quote: from ruthrimon at 8:30 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 no...just stop doing it...its fer LOSERS.....why do u do it? do u want cancer or no brain cells? this guy is right Hash Brownies Posted at 6:26 am on Dec. 4, 2008 You just need to be blunt and upfront about your smoking habits. Everyone in my family knows about my smoking habits, and I've found that when I was doing it and keeping it quite my parents got really worried. Just talk to her, and tell her that it isn't affecting your life.. and show her its not effecting your life. Xusk Posted at 6:28 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 You could try and talk to her, but it won't hurt to SHOW her. katiemydear90 Posted at 4:40 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 my mom knows I smoke cigs and have sex but she doesn't know about pot. she suspects drinking and maybe doesn't care as long as I am safe Wilder Posted at 4:36 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Quote: from ruthrimon at 5:30 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 no...just stop doing it...its fer LOSERS.....why do u do it? do u want cancer or no brain cells? Cannabis doesn't cause cancer or kill brain cells. It could be a good idea to talk to her about it. Explain why you aren't worried by your habits, and if you don't know how she feels ask. The fact that she brought it up calmly means that she's able to talk to you about it on an honesty and sane level, so you don't have much to lose by working out where you both stand in regards to your smoking. Monroe Posted at 4:35 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 just talk to her about. the kid above me is an idiot. ruthrimon Posted at 4:30 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 no...just stop doing it...its fer LOSERS.....why do u do it? do u want cancer or no brain cells? fullmooncurse Posted at 4:28 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 If I had kids and they were doing drugs I'd rather them do weed then anything else At least you can't OD on it. Honestly weed isn't THAT bad samjgreen Posted at 4:27 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 i think she was just trying to be accepting, even tho she doesnt approve, she prob just wants to talk openly with u about it and thats y she just seemd disapointed and not mad angel08 Posted at 4:27 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 yea. talk with her about it. Descartes Posted at 4:26 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 my mom did the same thing with me, except it was alcohol not weed. i just told her. she seemed...semi ok with it.
