It's fine.Ask me a question. I like giving advice. If you don't like the advice I give, or the opinion I have, it's fine.
Sometimes you can't get through to people no matter how long and hard you try.
advice
okay so first things first, don't preach to me about how i shouldn't be doing bad things blahh blahh, just answer the question. so about a month ago i got caught with a lighter, and a shot glass, kcool. everything was back to normal with my family in a matter of hours. then, like a week after my mom found my pipe and rolling papers, everything was back to normal and i was allowed to go out again that weekend. but, the day i went out, i got brought home by the police at like 4am. my family's acting normal again like nothing happened, but i'm afraid to ask to go out anymore, do you think they'll let me do stuff anytime soon?
EDIT: Okay, but addiction starts somewhere.
I'm guessing you are still a teenager considering that you live with your parents under their rules. You aren't allowed out, and going places is definitely a privilege. Most teens get this privilege, it's whole part of getting more responsibility as you grow up. You've lost this privilege for now. There's one part of being a teenager gone. You use drugs and drink alcohol, which could possibly cause problems for you down the road. There's another part gone.

The fact of the matter is you messed up. Big time. They already had forgiven you, then you went out again and messed up again. Second chances don't just keep coming. I can't speak for you parents because I don't honestly know whether or not they will let you out anytime soon. I don't know them. I just know that if it were me in their shoes, I wouldn't let you go out. It's not even that you did something wrong...it's that you did something really bad three times. Three times. You were given three chances and you blew all of them. That's why I don't think you should be off the hook. Because we all know that drugs and alcohol are bad yes, but the fact that as soon as you were off the hook you went out and did something wrong again...that's not good.
I suggest not bringing up the subject of going out anymore. Let them come to you with that. Show maturity in not whining or complaining or sneaking out.
And I know you don't want to hear this but I have to say it: Please don't screw up your life by using and abusing drugs and/or alcohol. It's not worth it. You'll look back ten years down the road and wonder why on earth you ever decided to do them. And by telling us that you don't want to hear us preach to you about how you shouldn't be doing bad things, then you know that they're bad and you know someone is going to say it. Use your common sense.
Good luck.
(Rating: 5) kk; but im saying don't preach to me for a reason. im not addicted to drugs and im certainly no alcoholic and I know im not taking any of this to that level.
