eh, at least i tried.

once again today, i was having a talk with my mom about marijuana, because of the tense situation going on in this house. she told me that i need to stop smoking in the house because my stepdad is likely to find out soon. everybody else in my immediate family knows except for him, LOL. he'd throw me out if he found out. i'm not worried about it, though.

but that isn't the point of this post. basically, i was in the kitchen talking to my mom about smoking (which, to her, is none of her business, as long as it isn't going on in the house...) and she is unemployed now. she has been for a couple years, because of degenerative muscle/bone damage in her body. and now it affects the nerves in her right leg... and i offered her marijuana to help alleviate the pain. and she's never been addicted to a drug. or so she says. she's just better than being dependent on something.

i suggested that she can ask me any time she wants to give THC a try. i told her it would most likely work wonders on her nervous system, instead of those oxycodone's and shit she's always popping to take care of it. she said as long as she has that, she'll be alright. but like i said, i tried!

Do you grow your own or buy from someone who grows their own? It's hard to convince someone that MJ is safe when you don't know beyond a shadow of a doubt where the product comes from. I'm not sure I'd want to give some as "medicine" unless I knew myself to begin with. Keep approaching her with a cool attitude about it and arm yourself with as much knowledge as you can find.

what lemonboy said + 1

although fanatics don't listen to facts :(

kudos man,ihope she gives it a try

Congratulations for being so up-front with her, she better give it a try, or maybe she needs a talk with good ol' 3 Sheets :D

they're so set in their ways!!
this is a direct result from their televisons programming them.
living through the "just say no" era must of damaged their brains.

i try to get my parents to toke up all the time. to no avail.
once, i DID get my mom to say she'd smoke a bowl with me tho!!
see, shes always pressuring me to go to this chiropractor. im like..umm..my back/neck is fine :confused:
after months of this, i was like..ok..ill go to your silly doctor if you smoke a bowl of weed with me.
she said ok!!!

unfortunately i never got any weed since then:(
but it worked.
so
try to see if you can blackmail them into it.
Oxys kill. Pot will heal.

yeah what lemon boy said is true, i had the worst time convincing my parents there was no chance that my weed was laced...grow some nice weed and roll her a joint and see what she says

yo what the frick?
You tokin with that bitch?
Aint no1 got ur back?
So ur mama smokin hash?

the futures bright,
the futures green,
So tell ur step dad to get lean!!
He'll leave u alone when he finds the peace,
that marijuana helps release

Dr. Seuss.

Sam i am.

it'd be nice to grow some nice, potent marijuana out here. i live on private property - but bordering right next to a bunch of businesses, and we actually have pigs that fish in this area. i hear the choppers early in the morning every harvest season.

but anyways, i doubt she'll come around to it. i just came in the house reeking like it, and she commented, and i was like 'well, do you mind? i'm not smoking in the house, like you said.' she doesn't like the smell, but i know she'll come around. that lady is crazy...

You have to break down the propaganda. Once people realize they have been lied to it's usually downhill from there.

My madre is the same way, she'll take all these pills and ish but won't try a J. BUT when I'm off probation I've gotten her to say she'll smoke with me and my friends, 'cause she was a very serious hippie back in the day. Congrats on trying!

I love how half of us just start bursting out in poetry at the most random times! AHAH

i just talked with my second oldest sister for the past half an hour about my life, her life, and the ethics and truth of marijuana at the mall earlier. and she understands a lot more now than she did before, i know this most definitely. my family is starting to learn the truth about this plant. really.

If you're parents aren't cool with weed then all you have to do is talk to them about it, in most cases. Once I talked to my mom about it (and other issues... we had a big talk) it was all better... EVERYTHING. A good heart to heart talk with my mom and now we are on great terms, and there is no more arguments and shit. YAY!
