Hello, first I would like to say that I am a 16/m and I started smoking weed every weekend and some weekdays since August. I went off to go hotbox my friends truck tonight and we did, and we had a blast. I was out from about 4-9, and we didn't smoke til about 6. Anyways, when I came home about 30 mins ago I said hello to my mom and then I started eating. My mom was like "What's wrong with your eyes... oh my gosh.. what have you been doing?" And I said "What!? Nothing! What do you think I've been doing? I stayed up really late last night watching a movie and then I woke up early and then I drank an energy drink so I'm really tired!" well then my mom was like "then go look in the bathroom mirror." and Oh my God. My eyes weren't TOO bad, but they were still hella glossy and a bit red, and wow were my pupils dialated. I simply said Mom, I DONT do drugs. I'm really tired... that's all... and she was like "whatever. take out the dishes." What I'm wondering is how do I deal with this? My mom will probably think that I have smoked before and then she will get mad, even though she used to smoke weed when she was my age. Thanks for any input, sorry for the long story :P
Don't worry about that long story. Try smoking earlier than you normally do, you say you normally started smoking around 6pm try smoking about a half and hours after you hook up with your friends, and for now maybe skip a couple weekends of doing just to lay low and pretty much cover your ass for the next 3 weeks then start again. Just try to stay low and let things cool down, it may be hard but trust me i know where your coming from.

It may be hard and she may get upset but she's your mom, and she loves you. She is most likely going to tell you how bad it is to smoke weed and that she doesn't want you to do it. I am about to have a daughter in February and I know if she came to me and told me she was smokeing weed, I would be upset... But like your mom, I used to smoke, and because of that I would not be able to judge her (and neither can your mom.) I would suggest looking up information (whether on the internet or through books) on weed and the effects of it before you continue smoking. And any information you come up with, bring it to the table when you talk to your mom. It may help her to understand your decision to smoke if you show her that you really know what you are dealing with. Good luck, I hope it all works out for you!

Anyways, yeah your already caught, and especially if your mom did it when she was younger, I dont think she's niave enough to buy any of your excuses. For right now, I'd avoid any conversations about it. Just kinda chill and try to act normal. If you dont make a big deal out of it, maybe she wont. But no more lame excuses, you're caught and lying to her if she does confront you will only make her mad. Come clean, kinda, anyways, if she confronts you about be like yeah, I took a couple tokes just to see what it was like. Make her think you didnt like it that you felt sick so that she doesnt worry about you doing it again. [ daisysmiles's advice column | Ask daisysmiles A Question ]
clarayow answered Friday December 15 2006, 2:06 am: Goodness, why is everyone on weed?! I know this'll sound cliche but why are you making yourself a slave to an addiction? You've paying for something that's destroying your lungs, liver and your looks.
Your mum obviously knows you're on drugs since she's been there and done that. I guess what she really wants is for you to be honest with her. She's really disappointed that you are lying to her when she said "whatever, take out the dishes". Your mum doesn't wanna force you to admit to her. She wants you to tell her the truth on your own accord, and you should cos she's your mum and she cares bout you. You should quit weed-ing. Tell me, what are the pros of weed-ing as compared to the cons? You should have a good talk with your mum and see what she has to say. Cos I think she's waiting for you to make the first move.
