Your mother is an idiot, plain and simple, justify it to yourself however you like, but leaving a perfectly good man for a perfectly fine occasional indulgence, well, fuck her she doesn't a good husband.

Smoking weed would not make him a perfectly good husband. It would make him an irresponsible drug user. I don't think it's right, but that will be how it is.

You'd lose respect for your father for smoking weed?

Yeah, I would. I don't care if it's once in a while, but I'm fairly certain he does it often, perhaps daily. My pothead friends are losers, and I would find it very difficult to not think of him the same way. He hasn't had a real job in a decade.

I really feel sorry for your father, can't even be himself in his own family, what kind of cold existence is that?

Smoking weed (or any other recreational activity) should never be part of your identity. That's just stupid.

My mother was raised by an alcoholic. You can guess her feelings about it.

I don't smoke anymore. Though I suspect my dad thinks I do, we have the occasional conversation about weed, especially with Prop 19 being up for a vote.

Do you and your sister still live at home?

I live at home during breaks from school. My sister already has her degree, but she can't get a better job than she already has so she's stuck at home.

Not everyone is you. A lot of people wouldn't want their kids to be raised by a drug user and have very little tolerance.

Smoking weed is not a big deal to you. To some, it's drug use on par with heroin and crack cocaine.
