Sounds like you handled it well.

The only way to win an argument on illegal substances is to say that it's your choice and your comfortable with the responsibilities; the opposite party will always come back to the illegality.
There are more positives to marijuana use than there are negatives but it is hard to win a disagreement related to it.

But only as long as you're responsible with it.

*Summary* My mom found out i smoke weed, her only solid argument was that its illegal. Discuss.

Just got home from the gym and i went into the kitchen to fix me up a protein shake and she stands there, hands on her hips, pokes me in the chest and gives me this look....and i at first thought it was about the 12 pack in my closet, but then she says "So how long have you been smoking pot?"

naturally im like //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif

"what makes you think i smoke pot?"

"the pipe in your medicine cabinet..." (oh snap, she found Jenny)

"why were you going through my medicine cabinet?"

"i was looking for a light bulb..."

"why would there be a light bulb im my medicine cabinet?" (pwnt!)

"just answer my question! how long have you been smoking?"

i just decide to be (mostly) honest about it. "awhile..." i say...

"how long is awhile?"

"i dunno...." (almost 2 years)

"how often do you do it?"

"once every two weeks or so..." (more like once or twice every week)

she goes on to ask if i've been doin meth, heroin, coke and i say no while trying to hold back my laughter. then she brings up how i'm so into being healthy, and how its like im washing and waxing my car then driving it into the mud. i tell her how she's into being healthy too but she smokes. "thats because im a nervous wreck about my drinking pot smoking son!" to which i reply "well its not like i've been drinkin and smokin my whole life..."

then she brings up the typical arguments about marijuana...

"i dont want it to ruin your life!"

"look at me, is my life being ruined right now? im a full time student, i got 3.8 gpa last semester, i have a 4.0 right now, i work 30+ hours a week, and i go to the gym 4 days a week..."

"is there pot in this house?"

"no, i don't buy pot"

"who buys it?"

"my friends..."

"what friends?"

"the friends that i have..."

"so are you doing it because everyone else is?"

"no..."

"so why do you do it?"

"because i enjoy it."

"you enjoy it, is that why?" (uh, yeah!)

"why does anyone do anything?"

I stayed calm and didn't raise my voice, talked about it as maturely as possible.anyways, basically her only solid argument is that its illegal. anything else she came up with i basically shut down.

Discuss!

1) you will find out LOTS of people will tell you marijuana is bad simply because its illegal

2) im glad you didnt handle it like a douche. handling it like a retard usually gives them more ammunition

Pot head.

Hopefully she calls the cops on you.

Should have told her that you grow it in the closet next to your 12 pack of beer.
WTF are you doing hiding beer in your closet? That shit is gonna taste nasty unless you have an UndacovaBrotha fridge in your closet.

Hopefully next time you go out on a friday/sat night with friends to go smoke she calls the cops and reports your license plate, and says she has strong suspicions you have drugs on you.

Pagers were the shit. I remember hiding mine fro teachers because back then they were outlawed at school. Apparently you had to be a drug dealer to own one.

silly kids from the hutch

Do0d, WHY IN THE FSK do you keep a bowl in your medicine cabinet?

Exactly. Looking a it from a parents point of view, if I had found my kid was smoking pot, I wouldn't care, but I would make sure they understand the consiquences they would have to be responible for. I would present them with the possibilty of court and laywer fee's, and jail. I would say, if you want to smoke pot, thats fine, just be responsible with it, like anything else. As long as you are responsible, don't drive, ect, I don't have a problem with it.

It's your ****ing mother, she found out you do drugs, and you have the audacity to think she's out of line? Learn some **** respect. I know if I talked back to my mother she'd still slap me even today.

Hey look, it's a pothead. What a surprise; you have to justify your actions based on the opposing argument.

Weed is a drug. The fact that you think it is not leads me to be glad it is outlawed. Obviously it has killed so many of your brain cells, you no longer know what a drug is.

Weed has been known to cure tumors in lab rats //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

haha

glad I am one of the lucky few who gets to toke with their dads... my mom would kill me tho

and on a serious note, while I do agree with u that weed IS a drug, it almost shouldnt be, compared to many of the other drugs in our society today.
