Ozzy, you're parents aren't evil, dude - they are just misinformed and closed-minded.
But guess what? It aint their fault.

Maybe I'm wrong, but it sounds like one or other of your parents is from a deeply religious background (or indeed, a military one). If that is true, then I'm afraid that you're gonna have a very difficult job to change their opinions - but still doesn't hurt to try

I'm sorry to tell you this, but until you're 18 and living under your own roof, you gotta respect their rules. It's a tough break, man, I know all too well, but it's the way it is.

But here's where you gotta be clever.
Don't be flaring up in their faces and giving them a whole load of shit, because you will be the only one to suffer - think about how you'd look to them - "obviously the drugs have turned him into a raving psycho!" - get it?
Instead, stay calm and reasonable.

They only want to protect you, like others have said, and maybe their opinions about providing that protection (ie, against cannabis) are a little misguided, then maybe you should do some research yourself.
Every now and then, you could tell them some of your findings to help them understand better - but not in a "see, it is safe, so I should be allowed to smoke it" kinda way, but rather a "I have been thinking about what you said, and decided to research it further, and this is some of my findings" kinda way...

Or, maybe I'm just old fashioned lol
Res...
Not old fashioned dude, just a little older, a little wiser.
I have to agree with everything you said.
psychocat Reviewed by psychocat on . My parents are evil :( Basically now that my parents know i smoke, they've ruined my life... even more then they already had. Ok, i tried to talk to them about herb after they caught me ... but my parents are ignorant. They said that if i ever smoked weed again, they'd send me to this "teen boot camp" which is for "troubled teens". They think that weed can give you Brain damage, when that test was conducted on Apes with shots through syringe of pure THC. They still were ignorant and said "No robert, it gives you Rating: 5
