Got caught, need help

about 12 days ago i got caught by my dad at night in my yard smokin my pipe...he was sleepin but woke up somehow and came downstairs, we talked and everything, he is convinced weed will make me do other drugs and said under his house i cant smoke or anything...so this sucks cuz now i cant rele get my weed and i cant smoke it anywhere...he says he doesnt trust me anymore either because he knew i tried and it i said i wouldnt do it again( i had to) so he wont let me do anything that needs trusting if u kno wat i mean...any suggestions? thank u

i was in a similar situation a couple of months ago when my mom caught me hotboxing my bathroom. She was cool with it as long as she knew it was just a one time thing (yeah huh-right). So i just kept on smoking but much more cautiosly. Remember when you're in this situation:NO HOUSES. dont smoke anywhere that people live at and can walk into without a reason. Well, when my mom found an instant message box from my friend and he was talking about dealing, she talked to me again about how bad weed is and i just came clean and told her that im not stopping smoking. Now she just wants nothing to do with it. thats fine with me.
Just dont stop smoking for people if you really care about it, and dont let people influence you on something they don't understand. If you love smoking and you love the feeling you get out of it. Dont stop.

i dont kno how im gona keep doin it tho cuz now my parents dont trust me and wont let me have money and i cant rele go out that much for a while it rele sucksa and its unfair but i have no choice...i rele dont kno wat to do..do u think i should show them something about what weed really is and everything? fromw erowid or somehing?

^ omg man u r me like a few months ago

u know what, every punishment ur parents give u theres always a way around it.
maybe it wasnt the greatest idea lying were i was going or stealing back my bankcard so i could get my money. talk to them, tell them herb is what u love and tell them about it. give them facts that will smack them right in there ignorant faces. and if they dont budge, its time to show them that u r not gonna stop. sumtimes u gotta do sum fucked shit to prove ur point but its worth it. or u could come to an agreement. my mom said she wants me to smoke it in my house by myself so i wont get caught or anything, she doesnt want me to get a police record and ruin my life. ive had sum close calls with the law b4 and now my mom is being a bitch about me smoking again, so i hide it, do it when everyones sleeping, with the window open using a spoof and a penny to cap the bowl and a locked door also helps. and remember to cover the smell cuz it smells no matter what

gl man, keep toking and dont let ppl tell u otherwise

FIGHT THE POWER MAN!

later

hey that happened to me but my mom is kinda cool. i can smoke inside when my friends are here, just not too often. but if u want an advice, start by informing em about cannabis, that it makes no physical dependance, etc etc. and they will probably, with time, be more comprehensive etc. and if you have 16+ well u can work to get money, and if not, just pass newspaper, or rob some old grandma. lol jk. anyway, just talk to em alot, about how your feeling about this, u know parents are sometimes weird, but with time im sure ull feel more confortable. anyway, thats and advice

oh, and tell em too they cant stop you smokin, and that u like it so why act like this, and, in jokin, offer em a smoke, thatll give a better atmosphere, or just tell em if its better to smoke with friends and have chances of being caught, or to smoke at home or whatever. and tell em that every teenager have to experience things, and that u know they are doing it for your well being, but that the result is different. etc... etc... etc.... etc... etc... blah blah blah shit shit plz plz plz cmon cmon i love you mom dad LOL

jus take te punishment but try an talk it out with them-just say yeh you toke an all but say you rarely do it an tel them you don't drink or sumthin. jus say yeh im gna stop at some stage and convince them that you're not goin on2 harder drugs

sell candy at school. i make bout $20 a day doin that so every week i can get a quarter O

Just wait until you are 18 and move out or go to college to smoke all you want. Its not worth the tension that it can create between you and your parents.

Yea, you can smoke on occasion at a party with friends and shit as long as you dont come home all ripped, but at least respect the man and keep it out of his house, ya know?

If you have a selffish ass attiude and say "fuck them" where is that going to get you? Alone, and without their help and support.

To get anywhere in life we all have to make sacrifices, and many time those sacrifices define who we are as a person. Make a sacrifice now regarding the weed and not only will you have alot fewer problems with your parents, but they will respect you more for it. Then down the road you can smoke all you want, and you still have a good relationship with the people closest to you.

When I was young (started at 15) I smoked alot, but I NEVER took it into my parents house. However, it wasent out of fear, but out of respect and love. They know I smoke now, but they respect me as a man to make my own decisions in life. But I earned their respect by right action, and good decision making.

You will find that is true thoughout your entire life...Respect is earned, not given. No one owes us anything. Our reality is exactly what we make it. It is a cause and effect relation to how we behave, and the decisions we make. In part that it the true definition of "Honor".

Trust me when I say that our parents can be our be friends or our worst enimies in life. How you interact with them now will set the stage on what you would have them be to you. Think about it.

Good luck, be smart, and be safe. Take Care. :D

damn, im just glad that ive never gotten caught in the 3-4 years that ive been smokin. id prolly just come out like whovever said that u should present the facts to them. if u want to smoke dont let ur parents who prolly dont know shit about bud tell u that u cant

Very well said. Don't burn bridges in life, especially when it comes to family. Family should come first. I had a falling out when I was a kid with pot and stealing from stores etc (late 70's)... It took a long time to get my parents trust back. I'm 41 now, and I look at life alot differently than I did then. Life is too short.
