Parent help.. sorry if wrong place

[LiveHigh]

I don't really know where this question goes, so i thought i may as well ask it here. I smoke marijuana pretty regularly, my parents don't know, and recently some of my friends have been getting caught, which got me thinking. I sorta want to come clean with my mom so she knows, and i want her to allow me to do it. I have talked with her about it before, and the ONLY reason she doesn't want me to do it is because she is afraid of it being mixed with anything harmfull. She thinks that somebody is going to put rat poison in it, or add somthing to it so it looks like your buying more then your getting. Does anybody know of anything i could use information wise to let her know that this is not true, or maybe it is true.. has anybody else had experience with telling their parents? what did you say?

ok judging by what ur saying to me it seems like ur mom is extremly worried about the things u do / the group of people u hang around with..

"she is afraid of it being mixed with anything harmfull. She thinks that somebody is going to put rat poison in it, or add somthing to it so it looks like your buying more then your getting."

if shes thinking that hard i think its best to just wait till you are caught. if u tell her straight out most likely she will try anything to stop u from smoking weed right away, but if u wait till she finds out then u'll get to smoke more! or maybe she'll never find out......

u can try explaining to ur parents that marijuana isnt as bad as it sounds like, but most likely ur parents wouldnt want u smoking anything period.

It's wierd though, they're not worried about the "marijuana" they're worried about the people you would buy it from. They think that people will put things in it.

at least they know marijuana itself isnt harmful yet its hard to argue their defense. Saying that you could always tell instantly wether it was laced makes you sound like a I-think-I-know-it-all-but-I-dont teenager.

My 2 cents is that you should just come forward and lay it out in the open. If you smoke frequently and live with your parents you are almost guarenteed to slip up at some point, leaving pipe in your pants pocket or weed on the table etc... When you come out about it they wont think you have a problem. As long as your parents arnt anti-weed zealots if you speak logically and rationally it will make them look stupid to flare up. In short it will really be worth it in the longer term.

dude its simple. know where you get your pot. i know exactly where my weed comes from. straight out of the sc mountains or the club in sf. if you can prove to your mom that you know where its coming from, there shouldnt be a problem. and come besides, no one laces anyway. what would be the point? think about it...dealers run a business. they want profit, and customers. if they lace your weed with rat poison or some fucking rediculous thing that like, yuor probably going to die, and your friends will eventually figure out that your dealer sold you bad weed ( i have never ever heard of anything like this happening btw). look at this in the eyes of your dealer. he now has a VERY bad reputation of killing a kid. how much business does he have now? none...i duno man. coming clean is always the best thing but your the only one who knows your parents, do what you think is in yuor best interest.

Do what I do - bake her cake.

A space-cake - she'll get high and love it. Then she'll be in a better position to understand why you smoke pot.

I now how you feel but if you dont know how shes going to take it maybe you should leave it alone! dont want to end up regreting it later. good luck, tell us what you decide to do!

[dankman]

ask her if she'll let u grow:dance: dance :dance:

OK i was gonna post the other day but i got the server busy shit.

tell her that since you're pretty experienced with it, you'd be able to tell if it's been laced with something, and it rarely is.
remind her that putting dangerous chemicals in pot doesnt make any sense, and you'd be able to tell before it hurts you.

Actually my parents are the same way. The only reason my dad stopped smoking it is because he got something unknowingly laced one time. When I got caught my mum was "disappointed," and my dad was fine with it, as long as I don't get caught, and use it responsibly. Anyway long story short, the only way to get them not paranoid is to either explain in detail that dealers lose profit from lacing things (they lose customers, usually it costs money to lace something with, and finally it takes up a lot of their time to lace bud with something.) or tell them you want to grow it. They can't really argue with that, just say you'll keep it to a 1-5 plant minimum, far below dealing laws, and say that there's no possible way it can be laced straight from the ground.
