I hate this...(Can you help me)

Your parents, no matter how bad it seems, want what's best for you, and they're never gonna see pot being involved in that...I'm not gonna come down on you dude because I've been there and it's hell, but you should just ride it out at home with your parents for as long as you can because you only get that free token once...all that stuff they're willing to do for you, it's gone once you're on your own...get through school, at least get a HS diploma...you should consider staying on campus at a college, your parents will help you if you just bear with them for the next 3 years...college will be some of the best years of your life, and you'll come out of it with a good job...just make sound decisions, be careful out there, everything you do now will affect your life later...

You can get high and still live at home...ever heard of visine? it's not too hard to hide pot, alcohol is what fucked me up...but I'm out now and I'm still on good terms with mama, and I finally do what I want, it's worth the wait, trust... GOOD LUCK MAN, PRAYIN FOR YA!

I would do that, but i cant when i was at home i was depressed and suicidal, i could not live there, if i would have ended up staying there i would have killed myself, that is the honest truth. I have so much hatred and anger at my mom you wouldnt belive, and no its not just cuz "she wont let me do something" Its because my whole entire life the way she has been and everything shes put me through, im not going to discuss but yeah. Oh and also they want whats best for me in their own opinon, also i dont smoke weed to get high, i smoke weed to help me sleep, to help with my deperssion, to help me eat. Not just to get high.

people that say they'll kill themselves don't really tend to do it...I was all suicidal, I hated my mom, it was more than one thing for me too...and every other kid out there has to deal with parents, I mean, what makes you so special that you don't have to deal with mom or dad? everybody has fucked up parents with fucked up opinions and you can't get anything through to them and they can't get anything through to you, so they think, but it's just another test in your life, and it gets worse, I hate to break it to you, but your parents are not the worst of what you'll put up with, especially if you don't endure them in the first place...so unless they're beating the hell out of you or doing something truly abusive or illegal, I say deal with it, I did, and who else reading this hasn't dealt with it or isn't dealing with it?

sorry if that's not what you want to hear, tough love, buddy, tough love...

No i wasnt just saying it, i had alrdy attempted it twice at the time i had moved out.Nothing makes me special that i dont have to deal with it, I just made sure that i didnt have to deal with it by takin intiative and leaving.I dont plan on having any contact with my mom either once i am emncipated or 18. It is basically only my mom. I really like my dad but he is gay because he is pussywiped by my mom. When they didnt live together he was freaking awesome. He still is better to talk to about discussing this tho.

Your parents are you right your 15 and you gonna be out basically on the street, go home and behave until you can afford to be independant.

I can't believe how bloody insensitive you guys are being. I don't know why Penguin doesn't want to live with is parents, but there are PLENTY of good reasons. Don't tell him to "behave" because you know nothing of his situation at home. If he was leaving in a house with neglectful of abusive parents, I wouldn't blame him for leaving. Don't act like he's doing this solely out of spite for his parents.

Sorry stedric, but I think the word you were looking for ((rather then insensitive)) is realistic.

You don't know his full situation either so defending him means you're making just as many assumptions at whoever this guy was.

For most kids the best advice is: Live with your parents til they stop providing for you or it's time to grow up. ((An example of this is not when you're 15. You have some more years before you have to grow up, you should milk them for everything they're worth))

That's not to say that's true in every situation.

Anyway, good luck Penguin. Do what you think is best for you.

Oh, and i dont mean to infringe on anyone, 'cause after i posted that i started thinking about the "100 post rule:" You shouldn't be giving sage wisdom as if you know everybody's problems unless you've posted more (100 or so). But I'm new, so cut me some slack.

Haha its not like that here.
Welcome.


No problem penguin, we all love you. Perhaps thats why she wants you home, because she loves you. But only you know whats best for your envirnment. Your 15 and you've got the common sense to choose your own responablitys. Best of luck!

Encatuse- that was written by a teenager, lol. I figure Penguin was looking for "realistic" advice like yours, but probably also wanted some feedback from his peers too. And actually, the mentioning of abuse and neglect might actually have prompted a realization: "Oh yeah, I guess some kids are trapped in a family where they get beat, or locked in a closet. Maybe I don't have it so bad then."

Penguin, sit down and think about how your life would be after you get your "freedom" from your parents. THere are plusses and minusses to every situation. Hope you consider them all. I don't know your mom, but I'd be willing to bet she has your best interest in mind more so than "...someone else to stay with for a while" does. Good luck man.
