[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 601442, member: 1550"] I called the cops on my daughter when she was fifteen because she wouldn't tell me who sold her the pot. I didn't realize she was on other drugs too. At any rate, she was put on probation and it happened again later on. Didn't scare her straight. Wish they HAD sent her to jail. Do you think your son may be using other drugs? The reason I ask is that pot is going to be legal soon. I don't like it, but I don't like to be around alcohol either. I think that if my kid was smoking pot and not doing anything else, and I could almost prove it (because one never knows f or sure) I would not take such a drastic step as long as there was no pot in the house and the kid didn't drive under the influence. Obviously, your son has done both. I think you did the right thing under those conditions. But... Pot is going to end up much like alcohol. Many people can have a drink and be ok and do it recreationally and not every single day and without getting drunk. I think many people can smoke pot on a weekend night and not need it every single day and function ok. On the other hand, like with alcohol, it is poison to some people who suddenly need it every day and some people even hallucinate on pot. I sort of did because I have a mental illness and pot is cancer to anyone with a mental illness. We are not going to have the law to help us much longer (sigh). Keep us updated and let us know how it goes. We have all been in your shoes. [/QUOTE]
