I Need Some Serious Help...

[suhl]

Well, as so much as I really appreciate the flaming, I'll try to explain this as best I can.

You have to know my dad, he's very hypocritical and no matter WHAT I do he will critisize me for it and never let it go. He also went through this same thing with my 2 brothers, so I guess he's come to expect it, but he also has a history of loosing his temper at times. So it's either A) "Dishoner my dad" and lie to him, or B) Not get my ass kicked and admit to him that I lied and was wrong. I can't go back for what I did lie about, and if I could, I would. You have to talk to my dad when he's calm and can see it coming, if ANYTHING is a surprise to him, he over-blows it way out of proportion.

Also, I really don't value having my life taken away. When I get grounded, everything goes. Friends, computer, games, TV, even leaving the house. I seriously cannot do a damn thing but sit there and stare at the walls. Now, if you want to call thinking about something before I actually make a stupid decision being a pussy, so be it. Each person has their own mind set, and they think differently. But don't come here trying to bash on me for being a little worried of my dad's reaction.

i wasnt bashing you you flatout said he and your mom both said they were ok with it. had they not said it i could understand not telling them

I totally get that. My step-dad was like that very much and was very stubborn about it. If anything surprized him or even confused him.....I was just introuble no matter what.

You sound like you'll be cool tho. Just do it in a gentle way. Like others have said if they've pretty much told you, you could smoke then I think your fine. Maybe their actually just waiting for you to tell them.

I do agree with the showing him your a man thing. I got kicked out when I was 17 but damn it I stood up for myself and now me and my parents are better then ever and it didnt take as long as I expected. The whole situation was water under the bridge in no time.
