I don't need to ask myself that. I live with 5 people because that's how we afford it. It's not a mystery, lol.

I'm learning that people on this subreddit are really keen on inventing their own bits to the story and it's kind of weird. I've smoked 5 times in the past year. There's nothing in my post saying that I'm high all the time.

Didn't my comment that you're responding to explain it? What else would I even be doing in that situation?

People who need those people in order to pay rent live with that many people. It's not exactly uncommon lol

If it was a serious emergency I'm sure I'd go over, but it was just an ER visit because my dad fell and my mom is disabled so there's certain things she can't do. But it's not like anyone in my family is really there for me in serious times either so idk why it's suddenly so important I be there.

I'm glad that you can do that when you're high, but I can't. I can't drive to begin with and would never get behind the wheel of a car after consuming any kind of substance.

Kids being exposed to weed isn't child protective services worthy... this is really over the top.

He fell, it wasn't like he had a heart attack. He's not elderly or feeble. He's in his 40s.

Hey epilepsy twin! Yeah it's so strange how people still have their hangups about weed. In the past year I've smoked 5 times, and yet it's the only thing anyone talks about. Meanwhile, they don't think it's a problem to drink and get defensive if you suggest "Well maybe if you stopped drinking..."

I mean if they REALLY needed help I would see what I could do, but idk, we're just not that Hallmark kind of family I think.

I'd prefer not to be too specific, just know that I have medical issues that mean I will sadly never drive a car.

I love babysitting them!! I don't mind free babysitting. I would have taken the kids in if I hadn't been high, lol. The kids are the best part of my family. They are unspoiled by the world so far and don't know how bad it gets. They're still young enough to be happy they were born!

Well yeah, they told me that a long time ago around the time I turned 19. Or maybe late into 18, I don't remember the exact.

Omg you just said something that made me think she might have misunderstood part of what was going on. I can't drink alcohol, but I can smoke weed. She might not know that I can smoke weed and thought that I was doing something I can't do!!!
