I've been so open about my drug use since breaking away from my parents, and graduating and all that, that I think I sometimes forget that I used to hide everything from them and got away with it for awhile...I'd been caught drinking a few times by mom, but she never caught onto my harder drug use all through high school...She suspected(I assumed she suspected)for my junior and senior year that I was smoking out in my room,but never entered without knocking,and usually would just say something through the door...I knew she knew, but she didn't bring it up until I started getting lazy and leaving shit out all the time(oops)...I knew my mom had once been a pothead with my dad, so I think she was secretly cool but had to play the concerned pissed off parent when I was being stupid and leaving empty bags with seeds in it in pretty ignorant places...
My pops on the other hand, I came totally clean with...He is definitely my favorite person in the world, and me and him have a rapport that can't be denied...He'd smoked weed for years, and was a HARD partier for most of his days and I can see that now in him, so it didn't surprise me when he told me that I could smoke bowls at his hotel room on my Graduation night...My dad's a trucker, and he used to just get a hotel room whenever he was in town, and we would party there, and he would buy us alcohol,but we never brought up the prospect of smoking weed, and always "went on a walk" or something...After rolling me two joints that night, and letting us smoke them freely and drink(he couldn't, as he is drug tested randomly by his company)we've been totally cool ever since, and my relationship with my dad has gotten tons better...He took me on the road with him for a week once after I'd gotten out of school, and it was basically him and I recollecting party stories, and going through every single drug we'd ever done, being as honest as humanly possible...I learned so much about my dad that week, and we're like really good friends now...My dad is the coolest guy ever,he loves Bill Hicks,and I got him into Tool, A Perfect Circle, Incubus, Dredg, and more radio friendly stuff like Disturbed, and Linkin Park which makes him a blast to hang out with..he's been to some many concerts on so many drugs, it was hard to believe some of the stuff he told me....He's since repeated them many times since when drinking together, and he used to get into long conversations with my friends about acid, shrooms, coke, and all kinds of various things he'd learned about over the years...My friends would come over and basically sit and chill with my dad, and laugh our asses off...I've smoked weed with him twice, when he had been drinking, and I never tried to pressure him back into doing anything, he just made the choice one night and shocked all of us...Needless to say, it was incredibly good weed, which I think cinched the deal for him, and he got fuckin blown out of his mind!...I could barely be in the same room with him, without completely busting up all night....
My mom knows all about what I've done now too, after I totally moved out on my own...She's awesome, and just gave me a proper scolding before saying that "she figured" anyway...
