my dad! and he found 10 plants i started that wer istting in my trunk
Everyone.
Mum and Dad know, my grandparents would not approve, the one's in the US are conservative Christians, i'd prob give em a heart attack. One in England doesn't like it. I can't wait to live on my own, not giving a fuck what they think about cannabis.
i can tell no one... it sucks soo bad. Honesty is the best policy in my household too unless it's something they don't approve of like getting your ears pierced, getting tattoos, or SMOKING WEED! I'm 20 years old and a college student but because i still live at home in the summers and they help me out with college i have to be completely silent. I try to stand up for the injustice of the war on drugs when i can especially that on marijuana and make my feelings known about state's rights but even then my mom contests that marijuana is a drug that will lead to worse drugs. She's a school teacher, so the feds and the state have fed her plenty of bullshit to tell the little children over the years :( But i never smoke in the house or disrespect them by using it... it just sucks that they can't understand that i'm an adult and will make decisions for myself. Oh, and I actually had a cousin that said he'd physically "whoop my ass" if i was smokin "dope"...HA HOPELESS... but keep tokin :jointsmile:Quote:

He knows that I could end up the same way- stressed out and unhappy with my career and life as a result. He respects my decision to stick with weed, after going through therapy and the fun 'let's see if this works' approach that is often taken in prescribing commercial pharmaceuticals. This is just so much simpler, cheaper, and more effective, and after a while, I started feeling that there was a certain indignity involved in biweekly trips to The Couch when I really feel there's nothing 'wrong' with me, per se, other than anxiety, insomnia, and occasional panic attacks. My shrink, grudgingly, agrees. lol!
See if you can get that added as a note to your records- it'll save you a six-month lag time when yer state goes med next spring.Quote:

Good point Rhizome, as usual. Sounds like another trip to The Comfy Chair is in order. I hope she's gotten it re-upholstered, though; it was starting to suffer the effects of repeated visits by other unsettled rumps.
In our immediate and extended family our use is commonly known (with those younger than 50).. We've chosen to be honest with the teenagers in regard to both use and growing. My daughter has started calling me "Bill Nye, The Illegal Science Guy!" in reference to my botanical experiments. As far as my mother (and the older family members) we're taking the path of respect and just don't talk about it, though if asked I'd be honest. Funny how taboo some folks still think weed is but never think of excessive drinking being in the same vein.. This same group also doesn't seem to mind stories of Willie Nelson (75 last week!!) rolling down the road in his tour bus and a cloud of smoke!! So in their mind, it's not so bad unless it's someone close to them.
I'd love to hear how some of the others with older kids (> 14) handle communications on the subject..
