im 16 and since i told her i smoke pot ive been pretty upfront about when i do it. i smoked thursday and today and after she found out she called my dad saying i had to live with him instead. im a decent student and i can easily get smoking under control, and it seems like only all of a sudden she has a problem.
 
@ihoi-her reaction to wanting you to move out is rather odd im not sure why she does not look for other forms of punishment but than again im not a parent so im not entirely sure what the best methods are for punishing adolescents is.

I do not blame her though marijuana is illegal in most parts of the world however many many countries do not even care nor would they arrest you for pot as many of those countries have bigger things to worry about. Unless you are so in the continent of africa were almost all countries have more problems to deal with or you live in say europe were a vast majority of countries have marijuana legalized than id say that you should listen to your mom. I mean unless you live in those parts of the world or say brazil or parts of latin america and you are not a drug smuggler you should be good or say canada were its decriminalized in many areas. Anyhow im going to assume you live in the United States and its illegal throughout the united states by each state, although its not a federal issue unless you trafick large amounts of drugs. Even with that said only a few states have marijuana legal and thats only for medical usage and i dont believe a minor can have access to that.

In my experience most teenagers who smoke pot make huge amount of mistakes, there graders are on average lower, they have less motivation and marijuana without a doubt is not healthy for your brain although yes i must admit its probably the safest of all narcotics & legal drugs that can be widely abused. Marijuana while not physically addicting does change and alter your brains chemistry thus its a drug = a Mind altering substance, marijuana usage is bad for brain cells and habitual smokers of marijuana across the board are less productive and not to mention less healthy and there brains have been tampered with and over time can lead to brain cells being killed as you should know its surely not good to ingest smoke carcinogens. If you smoked maybe 1 time!! or tried it mabye a few times than okay i would not be crazy afraid. But you are going about this as a user let alone more than a 1 time thing and you seem to want to enjoy in constant usage of the drug which will have negative affects.

@ihoi- i was once 16 and i can tell you that the kids who smoke and consume drugs often go on to be nobodies and do nothing. Although that is not always the case i will say this its not say the best thing you should be doing especially on a young developing mind not to mention its illegal and often the crowd of people that tend to partake in these things are often not the best influences even if they are nice non violent people which they often are they are not the best of influences. But i suppose its all what you want out of life and your mother does not want that out of your life thus she wants you out of her hair and is going to maybe send you away.
 
She's probably just worried about you and your well being. A lot of people say pot is how teens get into worse drugs. If I were in your position, I'd probably lay off the smoking until I could get my own place. Or lie. But that's not really recommended, :P
 
well first of all i don't care if people say smoking is stupid and you shouldn't. like obviously it's not healthy and i'm not encouraging it but honestly i think it's really stupid that she's making you move out just cuz you smoke. i think she's overreacting. i'm sorry you're in this situation but i hope things get better GOOD LUCK
 
I don't blame her. Seeing as how you're a minor and it's illegal for you to smoke, she would be held responsible if someone saw you smoking on her property and reported you.

Quit smoking until you're at least 18. No good comes out of smoking. It's bad for your health and it's a waste of money.
 
tough love kid, she's not the one with the problem, you are.

She has every right to kick you out. Atleast you got somewheres to live. with your dad.

You need to get yourself checked in rehab before it becomes an addiction.
go get clean.

wish the best for you
 
She probably feels she has failed you and maybe thinks your dad can help you get over your drug problem. It's a terrible feeling to know your child does drugs. Getting your smoking under control would mean that you no longer smoke pot. So at the moment it's not under control.
