Last night difficult child had some friends over and they began the evening smoking "hookah" on my porch. I've been led to believe this is a popular fad among this age group where they smoke flavored tobacco from this communal pipe thing (that looks a lot like a bong from my olden days). It appears to be very Alice in Wonderlandish and perfectly legal. There are even hookah bars where people go to indulge in this mysterious passtime.
Anyway... difficult child today volunteers the following: "You'd be proud of me!!!! Mike wanted to bring pot to put in the hookah last night, but I told him I'd kill him if he did." I snorted and said, "i think I would've put a quick stop to that as soon as I smelled it." (I was home and working in a room near the porch where this was taking place). She commented breezily "Oh, no, it just smells like pineapple when it's mixed with hookah tobacco".
Ok. Am I the only one seeing red flags here? I'm guessing they did, indeed,have pot and were smoking in right under my stupid, untrained nose.
Anyone else have experience with this? Not sure how to proceed. Like many difficult children, she states a lie as the comlete truth. Ugh.
