guys i just want to let you know from experience that if you're living with your parents, and you're smoking around the house regularly (more than 2-3 times a week) and you still think you'll never be caught, you think you have everything under control, let me tell you, you're living in a dream world. there are many strings attached with marijuana smoking and many are noticeable to parents (smell on you and in your area of smoking, your eyes, leaving things around the house, starting to smoke when you think they're asleep and they're not).

The point is, we ALL get caught. the sooner you can come to accept and expect it, the stronger and better prepared you can make your argument when they actually do walk in on you smoking or call you out on it.


a parent who was previously against cannabis use goes through these stages:
extreme anger
extreme disappointment
sadness
acceptance
change of perception on the drug

you need to let the first 3 blow over (you can literally watch your parents move through these stages and see the transitions visually) then when you think your parents have calmed down, start your argument on cannabis use. don't try convincing them in the other stages, it's worthless.
