 | Listen, smoking pot is not the worst thing your son could be doing, trust me. As long as he has his act straight, you shouldn't hassle him about his occasional pot smoking. As soon as his grades drop or something like that, its time to have a talk with him. But saying no and being close-minded right off the bat is just going to create a hostile relationship between you and your son. I, myself, am a 16-year old pot smoker, yet maintain a 4.5 grade point average, am vice president of my school's student government, and might as well have won the freakin' daughter of the year award. Except for the fact that i occasionally get high with friends, i am every mother's dream. And think of it this way, if you keep that negative narrow-minded belief that pot is going to ruin your son's life, he is only going to hide it from you. If you are accepting of his smoking, you'll be able to know exactly how much he does it and if he's developing a problem. Yes, marijuana is illegal, but it will not turn him into a rotten son. The only thing that will do that is your constant nagging. Remember, alcohol was also illegal at one time, and imagine where we'd stand if every parent kicked out there child for getting drunk. Just talk to your son openly, and everything will work out for the best. |
