HAHA ReUp's got a very valid point.. honestly, that could be the case, cause I remember being like that on a lot of occasions, I always thought that I would justify smoking weed to someone I can expect to understand objectively.. otherwise I remember I would just let it in one ear and out the other, wait till the person was done yapping and then go light a nice fat one.. HAHA

Its not the weed that is the problem. You smoke yourself. Do you have a family member that blames every problem that YOU have on weed? We all have problems. Just because he is struggling in school dosent mean that is the problem. He might have problems fitting in. He might not feel comfortable with the cirriculum. He might not have someone at home who understands him, or that he trusts to talk to. Some people learn differently from others. Lets face it. Being a teenager is a bitch.

I agree with Narf...teenage years are hell, lol.
There are fun times but high school and I never got along. I also agree that bad grades aren't always the result of pot smoking. I was on the honour roll in my last two years of high school, all the while smoking weed. I'm now almost finished university, and I get good grades and smoke as I please.
The problem for my lack of paying attention, or lack of interest in high school was the getting up super early, going there and you can't leave until THEY say so...and you have to do what THEY say. There isn't much room for individual thought and expression, and I think if there was, more teens wouldn't think of it as such of a death sentence. Personally, I felt imprisoned in school....just fucking hated it.

This is where I think you did well; it's important to do your school work before you get all blazed. Using it as a reward after has always worked for me.

That said, kudos to you for not snitching. If I were in that position i would be hella pissed if you just ratted on me...anyone would. All anyone wants is to be treated fairly.
