how do i tell my parents i smoke pot (if i even should at all)? My mom is super suspicious and idk if I should keep lying cause she's eventually just gonna drug test me and ill be fucked. My mom smokes cigs so i can use that against her, all of my relatives smoked pot, theyve told me, and my great aunt grows medical marijuana and sells it to the government, so i think i can get off fine. My grades are good and my work is as good as ever so i think im fine.
I'd probably suggest you just approach her and come clean. If you get caught, you'll probably have trouble convincing her it's right. Why would you hide it if you thought it was right, would be her logic. Just approach her and hit her with all the facts right away. "Mom, I smoke cannabis from time to time. I feel I should tell you. My grades aren't suffering, I feel much more relaxed. If you don't like this, I'd like to openly discuss it." If you're going to hide it- I don't know your mom. She might be unreasonable and not accept any of that. But if you're going to hide it, come up with something else to tell her to kill her suspicion. Tell her you've been stripping at a club on men-only nights, for example. Her suspicions will be so depleted from what you tell her, she'll not sniff around so much.

Don't tell her. Never admit to guilt if the only evidence they will have is your word...Rest in piece, Johnnie Cochran.
