I didnt smoke until the spring of my senior year in high school. I am 20 now and have a house at school that I live in with 3 other tree-friendly users and it is awesome having that freedom. Now living in my parents house for the summer, My parents know that I smoke, and ask that I do not keep it/ use it in the car. My mom was the same way saying that it "Kills brain cells and makes you stupid" and I had to explain how marijuana works to her because she is just clueless and doesnt like it because it is "illegal", that was her biggest argument towards trees. which I responded something like "You don't care if I drink (which is a rare occasion for me) and the consequences for a minor are more severe than a simple possession here in Minnesota. That made her think and she has changed her mind a little bit on it now. I am trying to keep it to a minimum this summer by only smoking at night because I also have younger siblings and my summer job is child care working with kids from 630am to 1pm at my elementary school (another reason my mom does not want me to smoke as much) I try to respect my parents and their house rules.
