Blake,
I'm really sorry you got burned so badly. I know you must have/had a lot of pain. My cousin burned her legs working at a burger joint, cleaning the fryers when the oil burst out of the pail and on her legs. It was like her first job too.

Ya know, your grandpa was just trying to do something nice for you by getting your car tuned up. You really can't be mad at him because it was found. I know you young uns think a car is a good hiding spot, but it really isn't. And, realistically hon, all your grandma is doing is "saving you from yourself". I don't expect you to fully understand that at this point of your life. One day, much later, you'll understand. I promise.

Don't do anything stupid that you'll totally regret once you've cooled off.
What kind of rehab center will you be going to? Residential or boot camp? Be happy if it's a res.

So sorry to hear about what happened. Please keep your head up and don't do anything stupid. Life is a highway with some bumps in it. this is one of your bumps. you WILL live, survive, and continue your life, doing something stupid, you will not.

no matter what you do. don't blame yourself for leaving it in the car. because what happens... happens. and it could not have happened, and would not have happened any other way. dont try and say "if ONLY I WOULD HAVE..." we can not change the past just like we can not change the direction of the wind, but we can ADJUST OUR SAILS. Keep your head up. Life goes on. I'll be routing for you. Hope everything turns out well.

its like weed was the only thing that made me feel like everything in my life is alright and now i dont even have that not to mention my mother or father...

weed shouldnt be the only thing in your life that makes you feel alright. it brings me comfort but dont lean on it for psychological support. because you'll go nowhere. remember that cannabis is meant to enhance your life, not be your life. hope things are going well

i feel bad that happened to you. whats wrong with your family. seriously id be so pissed off if i were you. how could they rat you out like that..
myfamily knows i grow i smoke.. they're cool. they love that im happy..
yours should be too.. augh i have such low tolerance for ignorance.

I feel your pain man

I may not know whats it like to go through exactly what you are going through right now but Ive been through some shit as well...

when i first got caught smoking my parents took my truck from me for 6 months and I couldnt go anywhere...on top of that...I had owed them up to 1200 bucks for various things so I was basically working minimum wage for a long time without recieving any of my pay checks and it was really a horrible time in my life...

Im sure with you facing felony charges and going through the burn that this situation may be a little worse than mine....but all you can do is keep your head up and just know that in the future everything will work itself out and be fine again....

good luck

you have my sympathy

if thomas jefferson was alive many people would be shot and killed for treason.

thanks for the replies I woke up feeling a little better today(i think the pain meds make me a little depressed) the good new is im only 17 so im probly gonna get drug court where i will probly just have probation for a couple years...

Blake, you will survive this. The probation will be a drag, but if you're half-way smart, you'll get through it. Your grandparents were raised on the "demon weed" myths. They are not really to blame for their attitudes. They believe the BS they were taught. You will forgive them... eventually. Like you said, you're 17- the courts will likely go easy on you. Go into court looking clean-cut and "cowed" as possible. And you are 17- less than a year until you can get your own place. Play it cool in the meantime- you can manage that! It's not forever!

Sorry to say this, but ur grandparents are major idiots and they actually think calling a detective and giving their own grand son a felony charge is going to change him? You should actually talk to them and explain to them, that its not a big deal and mind their own bussiness.

Your grandparents...got you into all that shit? But why? Why the hell did they try to get a cop to check the shit out?! I didnt know family did that...

i would completely disown my family if they did that.

well my garandma is an idiot all in all a fucking idiot...my Aunts's GF(shes gay) is a ditective and almost a part of our family...my granmda called her under the impression that she wouldnt actually press charges...but i guess she has to and now everyone is like telling me I have to face the consequences...my argument isthere wouldnt be any fucking consequences if it wasnt for my dumb fuck gramma but you know how catholic famalies are....ill get through i smoked last night for the first time in like 2 weeks and it waasss goood weed ....AHHH i could actually get a good nights sleep ....

anyway im going to sundown (treatment) on the 26th of this month...this might be a dumb question or it might not be ...but im guessing they drug test you at treatment???

Sorry, just read ur last post.

Protective catholic grandma, gay aunt, teenage problems. Yeah it sounds like your life is just about the way it is supposed to be. I’m sorry to hear about your mom and dad that sucks. Just hang in there and do what your required to do because in the not to distant future you will be out of granny’s house and done with rehab. I know things seem pretty heavy right now but things will get better and this will be just another page out of your book.

My advice lay off the ganga until you get your life straight cause you know your gonna have to drug test. Why add to the troubles your having by failing a drug test.

damn thats messed up what ur own family did to u. i mean u had enough to worry about with ur burns and then they put a possible felony on you? nothing respectable about that. just keep ur head up man

Youâ??re welcome. I know how you feel about it we all have to do shit we donâ??t want to do. There are times when you just have to stop i.e. finding a job, going to some lame rehab you donâ??t belong in. Spend your time in rehab taking notice of all the people who are way more fucked up than you. I donâ??t think your granny is out to screw you she loves you and is afraid youâ??re letting your life go down the tubes. I donâ??t know what happened to your parents but I can see why she would be worried about you. People of her generation know very little about drugs. Drugs are drugs as far as she is concerned she may as well have found heroin in your car. Sheâ??s an old lady looking after a teenage boy Iâ??m sure her life is no picnic. Things are insane right now because it just happened but it will all work out youâ??ll see.
