REALLY REALLY ANGRY

Be patient. Explain that that site exaggerates the risks for the sake of propaganda. Brain cells are dying all the time , in everyone. Many intellectuals, scientists and engineers smoke mj. I am a mathematician and I have been smoking since I was your age. From the comments I see around here there are a lot of smart people on this forum - there's also a lot of really stoned morons who, in my opinion, should be donated to medical experiments

Hang in there! I give you full marks for standing up to her and being upfront - she will respect you and appreciate it - even though she is going to yell and scream on the way.

When she calms down, suggest you smoke together so that she can be in your life.

yes, and you no longer need to be honest with her about your business until she has earned back your trust from her many betrayals of you.....

They have the right to tell you that you're grounded, and you have the right to ignore them and do as you please...

Yeah tried that once...... that was the second time she called the cops on me.

Okay well my Nazi mother who i have absolutly no respect for anymore tried to get me to go take a drug test today. I told her that I didnt need to because i would not pass it. Well you would think she would appreaciate me being honest but no instead the fucking bitch threatens to call the police on me and now I am grounded for a month or more. I really love her but for this i can never truely respect her as a person. Another thing is, is that she smoked when she was my age and now she has to freak out on me about it. I really have no respect for any adult like this because they are total hypocrits and i am really really pissed off right now. Another thing i cant stand about adults is that because I am 16 they think i am less of a person than they are. Why should they have so many more rights than me i have a brain that functions better than alot of our idiot adults we have out there *cough* George bush *cough*. Ageism is really dumb and for all the adults that think they are supirior to me because they have lived longer can go fuck themselves i am seriously sick of this.
Thank you for your time i needed to rant

Don't blaim ya for being pissed! Honesty when it comes to telling your parrents you do drugs is not allways the best policy, but your Mom is just trying to protect you, she proably views her experience with drugs a bad thing, and doesn't want you making the same mistakes. Generation gap is a bitch! I'm sure when i have kids i will be more open to them to smoking pot, but then again I don't and won't regard smoking weed as a bad experience, or effect on me so what if I failed grade 10 when I started smoking weed with my friends. But I got my act together and finished highschool after that year, and I wouldn't change anything if I could about my grade ten year it was the best times of my life, and now years later I find myself back smoking the herb, the herb rocks!!

Likem: thank you for you warm welcome! I do appreciate it.

I love tutoring math - if anyone does need help - dont hesitate!

Ganja: Your mom really shouldnt say "You are nothing but a common criminal" Its a bad mistake IMO but I read it as a desparate attempt to get through to you. This may be the first encounter for her in which you see the world differently from her and stand firm on your position. Up till now she could likely dismiss your opinion and make you do what she wants - was it your choice to be potty trained? There will be more confrontations like this in the next few years and standing your ground early on in this process is very important. Just because she is being a jackass about it doesnt mean you should too. Avoid inflammatory confrontations even when she provokes - it will only make things worse for both of you. Try to find calm moments and gently point out to her that you have your own opinions and she should respect them: that your use of ganja is a decision that you have thought about carefuly (if you havent then now is the time!) and that she should respect that even if she disagrees. That you are not a common criminal - you believe in the law and being law abiding but you use your own judgement. "A foolish consistency is the hobgobblin of small minds" / Hobbes. Surely she speeds sometimes when driving - thats a case of he making her own judgement despite the law. Point out that she has a lot better chance of influencing you if she is a friend rather than an adversary. Be calm - let her rant and rave - stick to your guns - she will likely hear you but it will take time.

When my eldest was your age we had similar problems - not MJ - it was booze and schoolwork. I tried the approach that your mom has taken and it crashed and burned - leaving us both further apart and resentful of each other. I wish I could have been smarter - I did alot better with his brothers - like I said I did learn a thing or two over the years. In the end he got his act together and did great. I still have bad nights when I recall the shitty time I gave him. We are good friends now but there is still something of a barrier between us that I dont feel with his brothers - sigh
