This story kinda goes along with my "Laced? Or Just Really Kill?" thread. Well yesterday me and a friend of mine got really fucked of some dank ass kush. Turns out a friend of his mom saw him while he was pale as fuck, eyes rolling into the back of head and just plain fucked up! This is about the third time his family has been told/caught him high etc. Every fucking time he blames it on someone else or uses the old "everyone was doing it, it was a stupid mistake" line (this has already lead to his parents HATING me and seeing me as a bad influence). His parents are now threatening him with a drug test. Instead of comming clean and admitting he partakes in the occasional smoke break he decides he is going to say he tried it once a few weeks back. I can't talk any sense into this kid and although I'm sure his parents wouldn't be happy if he told them, it would work out much better in the long run. I've told him to sit down with them and have an intelligent conversation but he won't listen and continues to make it seem like he is innocent. I know this attitude will lead to him getting caught and kicked out etc. but he is determined to play the it's not my fault card. You don't really need to reply I just wanted to vent...
Hahaha! He's been a life long friend and is actually a really dope kid to chill with and were really similar except for the fact he won't man up and talk to his parents. I sat down and talked to my parents after they found my bong. Since then things have improved a lot! My parents know I smoke but don't pester me and if I come home reeking of dank they don't take any notice and I just don't have that guilty feeling anymore
sucks bro. maybe you don't understand your friend's position with his parents. if they're freaking out as much as they are over "seeing him high," then maybe they really, really are against marijuana.
I guess it's possible. But I mean he is at a point where he needs to tell his parents the truth, they will catch him again and eventually he is going to get kicked out. I really believe that a fact driven conversation can change anyones opinion, but maybe thats just me.
Man... that's just not true. My dad is a highly intelligent person... I mean, I've read the papers he wrote in college... shit is way over my head but I have presented him with years worth of research... folders FULL with research study after research study and so on and it's only gotten worse because he thinks that I'm so fanatical about marijuana that I can't think straight and will do anything to ignore ''the facts"... since then I've lost most of the respect for my dad and we rarely have any contact at all. So... I can understand fully why your friends playing the innocent card... it works for A LOT of people... he shouldn't of blamed YOU. But instead an imaginary friend that exists only to his parents. "Man... I thought Bob was my friend... but he pinned me down and blew smoke all over my face while fondeling my elbow... it was horrible" *snif* snif* So yeah... chill.
Thats crazy its alot like me and my dads situation, hes just so dumb about it. But the thing is, one of my friends hung out with this kid for like one night, and the kids parents drug tested the kid the next day at a lab and he turned up positive for cocaine. The parents ofcourse blame it on my friend who didn't have anything to do with it. Although he does do alot of cocaine. (but not with that kid) so some parents are just dumb like that.
Yeah, in a way you can't blame them. It's the natural thing for them to think, they're not you... they don't know your friend. They just take the most direct thought path and the person at the end is rarely guilty. I'm just really dissapointed in my parents for being so ignorant. I want to be able to have a good relation ship with my parents but it just doesn't work out. It's not even about the weed... it's about the concept. Well whatever... I'm high, they're not. Not everything in life can work out.
When will close minded parents learn that their childs friends 80% of the time are not responsible for their childs actions... Its so lame. When my mom caught me in high school she was mad at me, not any of my friends. Shes cool with pot now, but she didn't approve of me doing it in high school.
i have a friend exaclty like that. he just needs to grow some balls. his parents hate my guts cuse they think i got him started and actully he got me started! i mean his dad called the cops on me and told them i held a knife to him and made him smoke it! WTF and his mom said i was the ringleader and suppled weed to everyone. so i told him to tell it striat but he just doesn't have the balls to man up to his rents. hes 17 tho but a 2 year diff aint that much. he says (his asain) that once he truns 18 his rents cut off all responsiablety and can do what ever he wants. his rents are immagrents too so i think thats why they are so strict i mean if they were born in america then i doubt theyd care much. fuck my spelling k. ps happy dads day!
