SCENARIO: im in my 20s, living on my own. Mom still texts me to stay in touch via expressing her disapproval of my lifestyle. MOM: r u wrking? u need to get off the pot and get a job ME: im working with a friend at his organic farm for free right now, im supporting the local economy, i have enough money to make it work from this spring MOM: spoken like the words of a true addict. ME: "pot" or Cannabis is paper, fuel, food, AND medicine. its okay to put me on pharmaceutical anti-depressants when im 12 but ur still gonna hate on me for smoking pot? MOM: blah blah blah you need to get some help and come back to the pot free world ME: Haha, this really is a tragic story.
Wow. I'd say "If this is your sole reason for texting/contacting me, to bash me, then erase my number now cause I don't want to deal with it". then I wouldn't text back.
I thought you meant she told you to get off the commode... Imagining your Mom texting you in mid-dump...
Dude, don't be mean to your mom. Be respectful. You can respectfully ask her to leave you alone if all she is going to do is demean your life choices. But do it in a loving manner. She is your mom, after all.

But its not 100% possible. IMHO
i tried to stay as sensitive as i could.. its really just upsetting though, as much as i will play it off Cannabis prohibition is so much more than people have been led to think it has enormous Humanitarian reprecussions. it intrinsically defines the current era of greed my main hope is that people survive these times, and reflect on the injustice. this disguised oppression of civil liberties. its really just upsetting
one time i texted my mom to inform her about my new vaporizer purchase. she responded with a ' :-( ' i responded with a ' it's the healthiest way to smoke >' she responded with an: oh, ok. worked for me.
Having lived through my parents whole life cycle-it may get easier as she gets older. That's why grandparents can often be so cool-they have lived through the "anal control phase" of parenting, and can just let things be. its a phase-you have to wait for her to grow out of it.
you should just be like: hey mom, just so you know, in the past few months ive quit my crack addiction, im done popping pills, and the daily LSD wasnt doing me any good, all i'm left with is my pot she'll come around.. lol edit: no more infractions please thank you
