Ignorance on marijuana

Discussion in 'Real Life Stories' started by jbadoobs, Aug 28, 2015.

  1. Recently my mom found out I have my MMJ card, that I have for nausea. Marijuana suppresses my nausea great but my mom just thinks I have my card just to get high and she said I'm "just using an excuse to get high." I tried to educate her and show her some statistics and researches done about the medical properties but she still refused to accept the fact that what she knows as a drug is able to have medical use. I'm 18 and live under her roof and unfortunately for me I was given an ultimatum. I could either move out and pay for my own college or pass a piss test in 30 days in order to stay at here. I chose to stay at home and stop smoking and now my nausea is almost unbearable at times. In my opinion my mom needs to settle down a bit and spark up a couple bowls herself and loosen up a bit but then again it's her house. But my point is that propaganda and false information is almost nearly impossible to erase from society so I think in order to make a change is by educating the many benefits for patients and/or recreational users because personally ignorance just simply pisses me off.
     
  2. Take the piss test, and then blaze? Or will she keep testing you? You could get someone to piss for you everytime, I doubt she'll be like they do when you apply for jobs, watching you closely and searching you. Some people are just stubborn and there's no changing that, no matter how much evidence you surround them with. Maybe if she heard it from a professional such as a doctor she'd loosen up? Remember she grew up (Well, depending on her age) during times when there was a lot of propaganda surrounding cannabis, and it's a new thing people realising all the benefits

    Over 18-tell her to buzz off. Get a job and start working towards moving out.
     
  4. Wait you just posted a thread 2 hours before this saying tou dont have your card and are hesitant to get one. Something smells fishy here. Bet youre like 16.
     
  5. Moms house .....moms rules. You're supposed to be 18+ on this site, so assuming that you are that means you are an adult. As an adult, much like you're mother, you have the right to make decisions. You do not have the right to impede on another adults decisions about there own property. That house isn't your property. It is your mother's property, therefore she sets the rules. As an adult, if you don't like those rules you can take it upon yourself to go get your own place and have your own rules.

    Some day you'll have a house and you're own set of rules and beliefs. Someday someone will challenge those rules. At that point you'll sit down and realize what I'm talking about. It doesn't matter what the rule is. On your property, its your rule. I felt the same as you until I had kids. They challenge me all the time on all sorts of things. Doesn't matter.....my house my rules. I'm not a push over and by the sounds of it neither is your mother. As an adult respect her rules, as you would want someone to respect yours if you had your own place
