So 8th period i leave everyday to smoke, have for 7 weeks now. I normally come home talk to my dad and go play some Halo 2. Normally, i can talk to my dad and not sound retarded. This time i am just talking then all of a sudden i slur all of my words together. My dad was like what was that? and i got all defensive and was like what are you talking about? like how did you not understand that? and then i left and played Halo.
Left my house to go "study" with a friend......so we go out and smoke a few bowls, and then a joint. We were both pretty high so we just kinda cruised till 7:30 (we left at 4:30)....She dropped me off at my car and i drove home (so i got home at 7:45)
I walk in and i see my dad and sister walking upstairs and i hear my dad say "shh, he doesnt know i know yet..." he comes upstairs and hes "like sit down, (already im think oooo no) what were you doing how did your project go?....etc....(all of a sudden) he says your eyes look kinda goofy." In my mind im just like shit i should just tell him, but as im thinking that im saying "what are you talking ahout my eyes are fine?" and of course that day i wear this shirt that says BUZZED right across the chest. Then he says, "your shirt says buzzed, does that mean your buzzed?" then he like chuckled and just walked downstairs......so i was standing upstairs just like awestruck for like 15 min than i went to my room.
Do you think he cares like should i tell him i smoke? the only thing is i told my parents that i drink and my mom didnt care at all but my dad was super pissed. He still doesnt like that i drink, but the thing is i dont drink at all anymore i dont like losing controll of myself, so i just smoked weed now.
Sorry about how long this is, im kinda high so things just come to my head an d i have to write them down. But the final question do you think i should tell my parents about me smoking weed?

I wouldn't. Bad news if you ask me. Only admit to it if they bring it up and you're 100% sure they're ok with it.

actually i dont disagree that weed can be psycologically addictive but thats only if u let it be by smoking daily all day. So if your gunna tell your dad u smoke tell him u smoke recreationally and its not a daily thing.

It's all about rebuttals bro, be prepared with plenty of them.

dont use the whole stress thing... just say that you like to use it. if you say its for stress they're gonna think u have a drug problem. just say you like to get high everynow and then. im sure your parents probly go out for a drink once in a while. just explain its the same, only your way doesnt kill your braincells.
actually, i have no advice, just useless rambling. dont listen to me
peace

Life without any recreational psychoactives is missing out; it enhances your life.
You just enjoy getting high, responsibly.
Don't ever point to stress or any outside pressures or your parents will think you have a drug problem or that your using pot as a way of dealing with problems. The only outside pressure you should allude too is boredom (which is the same reason adults drink).

Tell your parents. Make them appreciate your honesty :P It sounds like they know already anyway, or will by the time of say tomorrow or what.

What you have to do when talking to parents depends a lot on the attitude they have going in to it. It also depends a lot on the kind of relationship you have with your parents. You can only ever hope to rationalize it with them if you are both talking on a rational, adult level. Too many kids have a relationship with their parents which involves their parent simply being the ??boss?, the one who sets the rules, the one who deals out punishment. These parents are used to making decisions for their children as opposed to with their children. Your parents are going to have to have enough trust in you to respect the decision that you have made. If they don??t trust you, then showing them websites or documents or other ??proof? isn??t going to mean anything to them.
The first thing you need to do is change the atmosphere of the discussion toward one that works in your favor. You will never win a discussion that is happening within the context of a parent disciplining their child. You need to change the atmosphere in to one which allows for discussion, one where your parent is actually willing to listen to what you have to say. You do this by maintaining the moral high ground at all times. Chances are that they are going to start things off with the negative connotation of you as a ??drug user?, something which perhaps in their mind is permanently cemented as a ??bad thing?. Do not attack that at first. You can begin to shift the discussion by presenting reasonable requests that will only allow for a Yes answer from them. Example: ??Father, I would like this to be a mature discussion, devoid of emotion, and one which will allow us to come to a consensus on this issue; is that reasonable??. If they raise their voice, become emotional, or if they simply begin to stop listening to you, you need to point that out, again doing it in such a way that reinforces the fact that YOU are trying to have a mature discussion about the issue.
If it becomes an argument, you lose.
If it becomes emotional, you lose.
If you raise you voice or become aggressive in any way, you lose.
The fact of the matter is that if you keep your shit together, and present your argument calmly and reasonably, it will make it harder for them to simply ??punish? you then move on. If they are not willing to partake in a reasonable, mature discussion, then they become the ??bad guy?. Even if things don??t go your way initially, just remember to stay cool and let them know that you are only willing to talk if they are willing to listen.

do what all these guys said and also bring up the fact that its a lot safer then drinking, and give them a few facts, like alcohol deaths/year and cannabis/deaths per year. they should undestand and if they dont just be more careful when tokin

what parents do is try to wrong foot you. They wont usually come in directly, but wait till your distracted and BAM, leaving you disoriented and succeptible to a follow up attack. You need to go in prepared.

1) Driving while high is irresponsible.
2) Never underestimate the power of denial. As long as he doesn't drug test you or find your piece or buds or smell it so strong you can't deny it...relax and deny, deny, deny. Just be circumspect.
