Dad just caught me, guilt trip

Discussion in 'Apprentice Marijuana Consumption' started by Iceman420, Oct 20, 2012.

  1. :(

    Yep, I mean, my older brother knows, who's 26 and doesnt really have much of a problem with it. When he started to find out, when I was 17, it was kind of awkward. I don't have a problem with smoking pot from time to time.

    I'm not even an everyday smoker. I've always been a every weekend smoker during the summer, but when the school year hit, I only reduced it to once every month. I'm more worried right now on testing,grades and what not.

    I'm 18, I'm still under my parents house, i'll be heading to college next year.

    Anyways, I'm in the college application process, along with testing, and I recently got my first period grades. 3.93 GPA, I've been improving ever since freshman year, and I've been offered to many schools at the moment.

    Anyways, my mom eventually got the word from my older brother, since even with an older brother, he always tells my mom, it pisses me off at times. Its like hes a child at times, always "tattle tells mommy"
    But anyways, she hasnt spoke to me directly about it, and has mentioned it in the convo's once or twice, implicitly sending signals saying she knows I smoke.

    My dad, I didnt really know if he knew, but i didnt want to know. He's a doc and work with cancer, so does come home stressed all the time. He smelled my room today, which i tried to air out, but somehow didnt work(I used a sploof and a spoon bowl). He got mad at me saying "dont smoke please" but not in a harsh way or anything. Just like that.

    Now im here, fucking being guilt tripped. Why do I feel so guilty? I get good grades, i got my life straight with school, I go to a nice private school for the past 3 years, ive learned a lot, and I know what I want to do in life. I've grown to be mature than everyone else in my small senior group. I always credit and respect my parents, they sacrificed a lot for my brother and I ever since immigrating ot the US from Russia.

    I'm not a snotty or bad kid, why am i feeling guilty?
     
  2. Dude you should not feel guilty at all, once a month is nothing to trip about and a 3.93 GPA is fantastic. Just explain to your parents that you enjoy smoking but do not let it get in the way of school.
     
  3. He thinks you're smoking cigarettes. He would've said weed if he thought you were smoking pot
     
  4. since you're such a good kid they probably wouldn't be pissed if you showed them in a mature fashion how your life is right on track and you're not fucking around with anything. they'll see the self control you've taught yourself and in theory they could be ok with you smoking.

    or they kick you out if you keep smoking, either way
     
  5. Because you got caught smokin at your parents house. Don't smoke there anymore. And when you do smoke, smoke enough to be guilt free.
     
  6. just smoke outside. there's no reason to not smoke at all just because your parents don't like it; that's ridiculous. however, smoking inside their house if they don't approve is disrespectful, regardless of whose room it is. just go outside. you don't have to clean up or worry about smell then anyway.
     
  7. Who cares man, you've shown you can be responsible with it. Do as you wan't atleast you aren't a fuck up like i was in school

    You feel bad because your family holds values against marijuana.
     
  9. ^^yeah what he said. you feel guilty because your family doesn't appreciate cannabis like you do. you shouldn't feel guilty unless you feel your choice to smoke weed is wrong.

    do you feel your choice to smoke weed is wrong??
     
  10. Whenever im in town and I smoke in my room I get paranoid, and shit. Just step outside, or go inside your car.
     

  11. if he joined in 2008, and hes 18 now...then he was 16 when he started his account. AGE POLICE!!!! TAKE HIM AWAY!!!:devious:
     
  12. Where'd you get 2008 from? You really need to learn to math and looking.

    2012 - 2008 = 4
    18 - 4 = 14

    But... he didn't join in 2008. He joined in 2010. So...

    2012 - 2010 = 2
    18 - 2 = 16

    This means he was 16.

    Understand?


    (But he's 18 now, so who cares? Obviously he's not some immature kid)
     
  13. Holy shit wow i thought he caught u jerkijg off or watching gay porn or something! Dad will b all good bet he probably thought u where doing both! I bet hes relived!:laughing::laughing:
     

  14. Well, parents worry. It dosent matter how on track your life is. It could always be more on track. And if it couldn't possibly be more on track, then there's always the chance in their heads that it could derail.

    When I was in high school, I could not have been more on track.
    I didn't drink. I never got in trouble. I would have smoked pot if I'd ever gotten my hands on any, but I never found a dealer (though I didn't really look for one either). I pushed myself in school, despite my ADHD, and still brought home good grades. I did scientific research at the University in my town, did volunteer work, had a fucking job at an engineering firm. I respected my parents. I never talked back at them, insulted them, broke their rules. I was about as successful as an 18 year old could be without making the goddamn news.

    And still they found fault. They constantly bitched about how much time I spent on videogames (why does it matter if Im still getting everything I need to done?). If I relaxed for too long, my dad would snap at me for being lazy. If I kept busy doing work, acting in plays, practicing with my band, whatever, they'd act all worried about me overworking myself. My dad yelled at me for signing up for an advanced physics class one year (Quit setting yourself up to fail) and got pissed at me 2 weeks later when I dropped a useless music theory elective that was assigning 3 hours of hellishly hard work a night (So you're just gonna let that teacher chase you off? Ourlastnames DON'T QUIT)

    And I would be the one to get in trouble for "defying them" if I showed up late to something, or lost track of time, or forgot my key to the house--most of which was caused by my ADHD anyway. They were wildly suspicious of me, even though I'd never given them reason to be. Every time I went anywhere--whether it was a friends house, a concert, or a fucking soup kitchen, they demanded to know to the minute when I'd be back. I can't judge time--my brain just can't. Sometimes when people get stoned, hours go by that felt like minutes, or minutes feel like hours--that's how time is for me all the time. My dad knew this, but still he tortured me over it. And if I was even a minute late, the whole family would be waiting for me, my dad would lay into me about being unreliable and undependable, and I'll never be able to hold down a job, and how disappointed he is in me. If i defended myself at all my sister would pipe up about how much of a bitch I am, and my mom would get upset, and my dad would get legitimately angry instead of just being "dissapointed" in that way that makes you feel like shit.
     
  15. well, that was just a really long way of saying it dosen't matter how good a kid you are. Your parents will still get pissed at you for whatever they want. (and also of telling you guys waaaay more about my high school years' parent issues than you needed to know)

    In fact the more of a "good kid" you are, they harder they'll come down on you. If they've never witnessed a real problem from you, they panic about everything, and tear you apart over stupid minor shit.
     
  16. Dude honestly you need to chill the fuck out and smoke more outside
     
  17. lol no wonder people always gets caught by their parents when they are smoking inside their house. Just step outside for awhile, it will lower the risk of you getting caught again, and you get some fresh air too :D
     
  18. I would only smoke In my room later at night when they went to bed. I would hit my one hitter n blow it outside when the wind was right. Otherwise I'd smoke incar
     
  19. Thanks for the replies.
    What I usually do is I have a fan, smoke a bowl, and then use a sploof the blow the smoke out. I don't know what didn't work this time, but my dad smelled it. (my dad knows it was pot)

    Its funny, because my parents came from the USSR
    My dad use to tell me stories as a kid of how he use to run naked through wild marijuana fields out in the country of Russia, and scrap all the resin off his bodies and sell it to people for like 5 bucks equivalent.
     
  20. Theres so many things wrong with this I'm not gonna bother explaining it.
    WTF?
