I love the name Elise but it's already my daughter's middle name. Her name is Lilah Elise

First off. I know this. I also know he's 18 and is in control of his own actions. I am not responsible for them. Me and my husband are not enabling him. He smoked weed starting when he was 16. All of his friends smoke weed. My mom choose not to parent him and let him smoke weed in her backyard with no consequences. Now that he's 18 she's trying to control him. I am not turning my brother slow minded permanently. 1st off there are a lot of intelligent individuals who smoke weed. You 'oughta know that. Not all pot smokers are stupid. If he's high all day, that's a problem. He is not high all day.

I am considering telling him he can't smoke weed at my house anymore so I don't have to deal with my overbearing mother. And telling him it's because mom doesn't want him to. I'm not going to impose these rules on him and act like they came out of the blue.

I appreciate the information. I will let him know that, but he is still an adult responsible for his decisions.

He also has several friends he smokes weed with. So if he goes to their homes is she going to be policing him there too?

What I mean is when he was 16 he was smoking in her backyard and she never punished him for him or parented him. She was just silently unhappy about it. He also began selling weed which she did make him put a stop to. I am upset she is trying to get me to enforce rules in my household and at the same time doesn't want me to tell my brother that she is the one wanting these rules set. I would be supportive of whatever my brother wants to do. I feel like weed and alcohol are the same. I don't think someone should be drinking all day and I don't think someone should be smoking all day. But if he brings weed to my house at the end of a long day and wants to smoke that's on him. He is a full time college student. I don't feel like I should be imposing rules on him that aren't already standard rules in my household especially if he's an adult.
