That's not a fun situation to be in, and knowing that it hurt my family so much, I wouldn't smoke pot while living under their roof.
But there comes a point and time in your life where you are a big boy and make your own decisions. And even parents, no matter what, can't hang on forever. They have to let you grow up and live for yourself. If you smoking lowers your morale and self esteem, I would seriously evaluate whether or not smoking is right for you to begin with (which is exactly what you've done here, so I'm going to stop rambling.)

Hey, a fellow Gainesviller!
On topic: I would just say respect your parents. Try not to come home stoned, and work hard in school or work or whatever you're doing. Let them build trust back into you and show them that a little plant hasn't taken over your life like they seem to think.
You could also consider just dropping smoking. It's not hard to quit, and I would say it's worth it not to smoke to be able to be accepted by your family. Don't be the burnout that hates his family and smokes to feel better. Smoking, like drinking, won't solve any problems, and even though
we know it's mostly harmless, obviously your parents don't.
Good luck with the problems, man.
