Drugs And Parents [MEGA-MERGED]

i havent told my parents anything because my father died of an overdose just shortly after i was born, my mum said that if she finds out i take drug, she will buy a gun, shoot me to dead and she will go to jail so i dare not to tell her, but im pretty easy about it, my sis (17yo), we always go raving, clubbing, rolling and getting shitface together, but she loves me not because of that, because im a kool bro kakka :D
 
I hid everything from my parents till I was 16 (now 20). My mom knows when i'm on something, along with what i'm on, and in the past year even knows how good they are. She knows that my use of anything is only recreational and respects my decsions. Since I've been honest with her, we are closer than ever. She's the greatest.
As for my dad, I"m honest with him to a sertian extent. I don't lye to him but then again I don't tell him everything either.
 
i came home from my friend's place last summer still a little high, and my mum asked me straight up if i had ever smoked. i told her no, but i couldn't help grinning, and she said that she knew i was lying. so i told her that i smoke once in a while. that was also a lie, but it seemed to appease her.
she doesn't know that i still smoke, and she definitely doesn't know about anything else i have done...
i think my dad has more of an idea as he was pretty heavy into drugs when he was my age.... i think i'd have a pretty interesting conversation with him...
 
If my parents found out that I so much as CONSIDERED doing E, my ass would be out of this top-tier university and back at home going to community college faster than you can say "methylene-dioxy-methamphetamine". Funny, because going to this school is probably the best thing I could do for my future, whereas community college would just introduce me to more users and, most likely, give me no reason not to do the "hard" stuff that I won't touch now. So basically, if they knew, I'd be better off dead.
 
Not a chance.
I prefer to retain my "little angel" status, thankyou very much. :)
Besides, what would it do but upset and worry them needlessly? I just don't see the point. I don't need a cathartic experience to enhance my relationship with my parents. There's such a thing as a 'need to know' basis. ;)
On the other hand, I *have* told mum I've tried marijuana (a slight understatement, although I rarely smoke it now). She had to accept that, since she told me she tried it once too. (I find that image very hilarious).
SLM
 
My parents know what I have done in the past. They aren't happy about it, and I get pissed sometimes because when I used to live with them they would search my clothes while I was sleeping, even go as far as finding the key to my safe and looking in there. So when they would ask me where I was going so late, or ask me why my pupils looked different I would simply tell them that I did some crucial Heroin. They would get pissed but it showed them how much I didnt like the privacy invasion hehe.
They are the type of parents that have never dealt with drugs though. They have never even seen a drug in their life, and they grew up in Bolivia. The only drug I will admit to using currently to them is GHB or pot.
 
I've allways kept my usage a secret, well tried to. Getting caugh taking dexies at school started off my mums paranoia to drugs, though I recently told her I take ecstasy occasionally and she seemed to deal with this better than I thought.
My dad on the other hand, (school principal) who did drugs when he was younger is much harsher on the subject, but softer when it came to lecturing me when I got caught at school. I don't tell him anything. Hes happier thinking I only drink occasionally.
 
I must be very lucky as my dads only worries were "just stay away from needels" his main concern is that spliffs could get me smoking. Thats what started him smoking and hes been trying to give up for many years.
My mum is sweet as we have shared spliffs, she wasnt happy about pills and things but we talked about it for a few hours and i think shes almost tempted to try them herself!!!
Peace

I am completely honest about marijuana and alcohol use. My psychedelic use though, I keep under wraps as they would not understand that.
-EXACTLY-
i tell my mom that if she asks me i'll tell her, but she doesn't want to ask. and my dad, well i don't really know my dad
 
My parents habits make mine look rather lame in comparison, For this reason my way of rebelling was to not do anything until I found that I really wanted too, at 21 I started with alcohol, then a lil weed here and there, at 21 and a half I found MDMA, which led me to give up alcohol almost completely because it cut into my pill money, I rolled hard and often through spring and summer of 2000, then just kinda stopped, (about a month after my daughter was conceived) all I really do now is hit my bong, I do it daily, but I still think its funny, I had four alcoholic grandparents, a hardcore yet functional alcoholic Mom and my Dad hits the crack pipe at least once a day, I beat the odds I guess, and some sociological and genetic theories too.
 
My parents definately know i smoke weed as does the rest of my family. My dad is always threatening to kick me out and shit but my moms is soo cool. She found a nice eighth i had and instead of flushin it she just keeps it in an inconspicuos place where i could break the nugs off and smoke em unbeknownst to papa dukes. pretty bitchin eh? As far as the rest of my drugs well my mom isnt that understanding, but i have told her pretty much every drug that i have ever used. except for IV coke i dont think that would fly right.
 
Im open with the parents. My mum walked into my room the other day and i didnt hide the spliff, I even offered it to her and see had a couple of tokes, that was a first!! She knows about me ordering salvia and trying to grow shrooms and all sorts. My dad said he's going to sabotage the crop and mum said i should grow them down stairs so everyone can watch them grow............!?!?!?
 
As much as I've lied to my parents, a heroin addiction is hard to hide. I've always been totally honest about everything else, but I thought heroin would kill them. My mom was actually really cool about it at first, she just said "I'll be here if you need help" and left me alone. THen her shit started dissapearing and she had to bail me out of jail so it wasn't so "cool" anymore. My dad told me right away to pretend like I didn't have a father.
Even though my parents know every drug I've done, I still lied (past tense since I've been clean for about a month now) constantly, just part of the addiction I guess. I'm trying to turn that around now.
When I have kids, I'll be one of those parents that says "Just stay away from needles and crack pipes" and will be cool about the other shit.
 
I'm honest to my parents about things that they would wanna hear. If I think that something I've done might upset them or get me in trouble then I don't tell them.. example: drugs, sex, etc. If anything like that becomes a serious problem I would go to them.
But that's because my parents overreact too much.. all my older brothers already got caught and fucked it up for me and my younger brother so my mom's a fucking hawk about drugs. My parents have caught me like once or twice before and I've been real close a lot of times. The main point is I lie to my parents out of concern for them.. and so I don't get in trouble.
 
Why worry them, ignorance is bliss... I dont want them not being able to sleep while im out enjoying myself...
I think im very resposible to keep it to myself
 
I don't involve the parents, but somehow I'm pretty sure they've caught on. I think people often underestimate their parents' intelligence. I mean honestly there have been times where I've slipped up and forgot perfume, or whatever. But if they do know, they are too lazy to do anything about it...
 
i'm pretty honest with my parents... i hide what i think would hurt them. my mom's pretty conservative while my dad is really liberal... but they can both be pretty conservative. i got a tat a while back and didn't tell them because i knew it would upset them.
i was at a dinner with my folks and some of their friends (it was my g-ma's 91 b day) and my dad looked down and tapped my shoulder.
"do you have a tattoo?" he asked.
what could i say? so i told the truth. "Yes." i replied.
i explained that i hid it from him because i didn't want to hurt them, ect, ect. i asked him what he thought and he said that he wasn't happy, but that i am an adult and am responsible for my body. but, he added, he was going to have to tell my mom.
i flipped. my mom would KILL me if she knew. i tryed to convince him otherwise, but he said no, it was important that she know now. so i went to get my car (i was driving back to school that night) and as I drove through the street i saw him again.
"i told her," he said as i pulled over, "and she isn't mad. i love you and i'll see you soon."
that's what unconditional love is all about. i lied for months about it. i would have lied for years about it if they hadn't discovered it. even tho the both do not like tats, they were wonderful enough to accept my decision. even though this started out badly, i'm glad they know. this whole thing makes me love my folks more.
 
Do/Did your parents use drugs?

Q1: Do/Did your parents use drugs?

If you answered no to the above question, Do you wish they did? ;)

My mum always tells me stories of my dad in his wild med student lsd days. She said he was in to all sorts of goodies and couldnt function socially without some sort of drug. He still smokes hash sometimes these days, but apart from the odd joint toke on boys weekends, we'd never smoke together. I think my mum has only experimented as far as cannabis.

Q2: Do your parents condone or turn the blind-eye to your drug use? Are you open with them about it?

When i lived at home, we were allowed to smoke pot in the house. Any other drug use we kept discrete, but it probably would have been cool. I remember my dad threw out my cream whipper though, he didnt approve of Nitrous Oxide.

The two questions are to see if a relationship exists... :) (which im sure it does)
 
Q1.
I think most of our parents would have tried Cannabis at some stage. I mean, its easier to get then beer :)
My father messed around with the herb while he was a med student and a little hash when he went to india but thats about it. My mum has tried cannabis but thats it.

Q2. I only recently came clean about my cannabis uses to my parents. My mum wasn't really happy about it and didn't agree with me using it. My dad was surprisingly cool with it and told me to just keep it under control.

I guess you could say my parents are pretty liberal minded. They grew up in the 60's and saw a lot of people totally fucked on either mushrooms or LSD. They said it was a pretty crazy time.
