okay so my mom found out i smoke after she tried catching me hundreds of times i finally just told her one day. she said she doesnt want me to do it but knows theres nothing she can do so i continue to smoke. about a month later she takes all my pieces bowl gravity bong papers and blunt wraps. she trys to tell me im addicted and have a problem. obviously im not addicted cause i just stopped for a month. last night as i was doing homework on the computer she snuck into my rooom and went through my shit and found the top to a grav i made earlier that day. First time i got high in a month it was awesome. and i try to have a civil conversation and i start telling her how weed isnt bad and that when it was made illegal there wernt even scientific reasons for it to bemade illegal they just made it illegal. but now after all these scientific experiments that prove its not bad she still thinks thats all made by stoners trying to get it legalized. i showed her that ridiculously long list that some one posted like last week of resources and she thought every single one was a lie. when i told her but these are scientist proving its not bad where are the scientist proving its bad for you? she told me there wrong because some scientist think global warming is real too. so now i start backing up why pot isnt bad again and once she runs out of arguments she starts making fun of me telling me im a pot head i have a problem i need rehab your grades are bad cause you smoke just about everything thats false which pisses me off. has anyone else ever had the problem anything like this or can anyone give me any help cause im not sure what to do anymore
I am in the same kind of position, apart from mines hasnt caught me yet, she has her suspicions though, and is asking me about it and stuff but she cant prove shit... the first thing you want to ask yourself is "why the fuck is your mum going through all your stuff?", tell her to back the hell off and give you some space, she would never have caught you in the first place if she wasnt snooping around trying to catch you, she needs to respect your privacy. Also no mother doesnt want their child smoking, its just what happens, and if your mothers stubborn like mine, she wont budge until its legal... you just need to deal with it until you can move out and start growing and she cant do shit. thats what i plan on doing.
Buy "The Emperor Wears No Clothes" by Jack Herer, leave it for her to read about what lies she should and shouldn't believe... Those that fear research, fear the truth....
this or make her watch the union, just talk to her like an adult and tell her you want her to watch a movie and if she doesnt change her aspect, well then your s.o.l
While "The Union" is a good flick, I think it may be a little too stoner for someone so against it. The book however goes over, in a very factual way (with cliff notes and proof) the immense 5000+ year history of how man has used hemp for everything from paper and rope, to medicine and recreation. IIRC Jack has offered a $10,000 reward for anyone who can prove anything in his book to be false. So bring it to her llike this: You: "Hey ma - wanna make a quick $10,000?" Mom: "SURE!! How?" You: "Read this book and prove something in it is untrue" Good Luck
I have no idea how people like this don't just implode. Where is the sense? Just keep tokin' OP. Live your life high and mighty, and MAYBE she'll see that you're doing alright even though you're chiefin' the devil's herb.
My mum is kinda the same, just keep smoking man that's what i do i don't really give a shit what she has to say about Mary i have tried telling her facts and she don't wanna listen. Blaze on bruthaaaa.
odds are you arent going to change her mind. i mean, yea, youre right i guess, but moms generally arent too receptive to arguments like 'its not scientifically bad, they just made it illegal.' youve got many years of propaganda and conditioning to contend with, and your mom prolly made up her mind about pot before you were even born. maybe you should try hiding a bunch of pro cannabis books in your room and let her find them and outsmart herself
tried to make her watch the union. she didnt believe it she thinks every pro pot thing is propaganda made by stoners to try and make it legalized. of course im going to keep on toking but its such a hassle to have to hide your shit and worry if shes going to find it when your not home
Don't let her see your post if she's also a grammar nazi. But on a serious note, I tried educating my mum with the same results. But she's a high school drop out so it's only to be expected... Just stop for a while & she might give you a cookie for "getting clean" or whatever. Then become a ninja toker.
See im sort of in that issue but what sucks is, my mom smokes more than i do! Me and my sister have been telling her that she shouldnt care because i have all A's but she's slowly losing the fight. oh well.
Almost every parent is ignorant and stubborn as hell when it comes to weed. They have no idea on the subject but they act like they do and when you tell them the facts and truth they are in denial. Just ninja like me and discretely smoke it up.. Well I vape so there is no smell but still.
just tell her you quit, and continue blazing. Just dont smoke inside and always tripple bag the herb or keep it in air tight containers
i have been its just she rummages through my shit when im at school and she has a day off from work. i tell her its fucked up that she goes through my shit when i come home and find my whole room turned upside down with clothes every where and she still doesnt find anything. then i get to clean it up too.
Wow Im way too sober - I forgot to include the name of the book lol The Emporer Wears No Clothes, By Jack Herer Who wouldent JUMP at a chance to win 10K?????
Even with all the evidence that pot isn't harmful to you now a-days, all the scientific experiments in the world may not be able to convince your parents otherwise. Some people are raised to believe that pot is harmful because it is illigal, makes you lazy, etc, and its almost impossible to change someones beliefs. Especially if they have had them for so long. The best thing you can do is to be discrete as possible and slowly try to convince your mom that pot isn't bad for you by showing her that your grades are still good and you're still keeping up with your work even though you occasionally smoke. Good luck.
