Moms have sex. They drink. Sometimes they smoke pot. While that can all be very uncomfortable to realize, it is a fact.
You can always just sit down with her and have a discussion with her if you feel intensely uncomfortable, or you can always write her a letter. A letter puts the ball in her court, though, and she might not respond.
Basically, if this discovery is not one which is going to affect your life or your mother's life tremendously - I think you're just going to have to forget what you saw.
Adults disappoint us because they are human. Just because she's a mom doesn't make her a superhero. Use your brains and try to learn from these decisions - you can decide only what will happen in YOUR life, not in your mother's.
Pwarx answered Friday October 22 2004, 8:33 am: Do you have a dad? If you do, talk to him about it and maybe he could talk to your mom. Or, you could talk to your mom just like she would talk to you if she found out you were smoking weed, and try to look rather scared if you need to. This probably wouldn't work if your mom was an alcholic, and if she is, forget this. I hope that, in some way, I managed to help you. ^_^ [ Pwarx's advice column | Ask Pwarx A Question ]
GroverTheStoNer answered Thursday October 21 2004, 10:58 pm: Wow, sorry to hear that. If you are really upset, talk to a trusted family member or write in a journal. When you feel ready enough, tell you mom that you were in her make-up drawer looking for lipgloss or something, and that you found a tiny weed packet and smoked joint. I hope i helped and sorry if i didn't.

Baby2Gurlie7 answered Thursday October 21 2004, 8:38 pm: I know how you feel. I was in that same situation and it sucks =/..It's really hard to talk to her about it because you dont know how to bring it up or something. All I did is, when I got into a fight or something with my mom I just said "well at least i dont smoke pot!!" just so she knew I knew. Maybe you could do that or something, and talk to her about it after that..And tell her that it really bothers you because it can kill her.

Ks_help answered Thursday October 21 2004, 8:16 pm: even if you dont want to talk to her you should i know there is not much to tell just that you dont want her doing weed but you need to at least tell someone that can talk to her if you need more imformation about weed go on the internet just to make it clear that what she is doing isnt only aganst tha law but can kill her [ Ks_help's advice column | Ask Ks_help A Question ]
paradiei3abii3x answered Thursday October 21 2004, 6:28 pm: Well, just think if she has been acting any different than she usually does, or are there any signs like a lot of stress on her or anything like that. But ii think that it would be better if yuu just talked with your guidance counseler or relative or something, because that is a lot of stress on a teen. Good luck hun! Hope ii helped.
truadvice answered Thursday October 21 2004, 6:27 pm: i would flush the weed first and then if you find more later on you should talk to a counslier and ask her to refur your mom to a drug counslier to help her with her problem . your mom wount ask about where the weed is because she thinks you dont know and probably doesnt want you to know [ truadvice's advice column | Ask truadvice A Question ]
