Advertisements [?]I'm at my parents' house for Xmas, and after I toned up a little bit last night, I miscalculated the airflow and ended up wafting smoke through the house. My parents found out and boy are they pissed. I'm mad at myself for getting caught, but not for smoking in general. It was stupid to smoke in their house and I should have respected their rules. I know that pot is safer than both alcohol and tobacco, and I will not let my parents dictate my life. They are threatening to cut me off, and I am considering it. I am an adult, and I should be able to make my own decisions. Why did I smoke? It was late and I was bored. Man, I'm a big disappointment to my parents. They seriously have no belief that I will make anything of my life. Let them. Their doubt fuels my drive. I will do great things in my life, but I will live my life on my terms, not theirs.Rant over. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x8351788

I'm going to give you my best "Dear Abby" here Edited on Tue Dec-23-08 11:38 AM by LynneSinFirst - it's their house and their rules.Second - although I don't doubt your comment about pot being safer than tobacco or alcohol seriously, couldn't you manage to go a few days without just to keep the peace? I know pot is not addictive but you might want to take into consideration why you couldn't manage a few days without for the sake of peace within the family.

The blue loser says that he will live his life on his terms and not his parents terms but stays at their house for the holidays. I wonder if they will withhold his allowance for this week, too.

This was 18 years ago and she and my dad were one of those repubby Ward and June types although both functioning alcoholics. They could never make me stop and finally gave up. I still light up in my room when I want. They'll get over it. No big deal.
Thirty-seven years old and still living with his parents? Please tell me that's a mole.

Right after I finish another one o' these babies....
There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
IdaBriggs Donating Member (1000+ posts) Wed Dec-24-08 08:41 AMResponse to Original message80. Let me get this straight -- You are a college student at age 23 (not uncommon). Your parents are paying for a good chunk of your support, if not all. You normally live at college, where you are not subject to their rules, but are home visiting for the holidays.And you bring illegal drugs into their home, obviously planning on indulging, even though you are fully aware this would upset them.You sir, are a selfish, immature, spoiled brat. You should be 'cut off' financially, and your threats of cutting them off EMOTIONALLY are simply blackmail attempts.My opinion of you is low, especially as I am confident you have pretty much ruined the holidays for your family. They must now live with the fact they have obviously done a poor job of raising a decent human being, because instead, they've got you -- someone who cares more about being 'bored' (planned in advance, obviously) than he does RESPECTING them or their rules.But that is the gist of it, isn't it? You don't RESPECT them; you USE them for their funds. The more they give, the STUPIDER you think they are. And, if they STOP giving to you, or say anything you don't want to hear ("We are worried you are going to be a complete loser, since illegal drug use is a great way to get a criminal record/end up in jail!") you threaten to stop being a loving son.Of course, you aren't a loving son, being a selfish, spoiled brat, but you just had to shatter their illusions, didn't you?Merry ****ING Christmas.(End Spanking)
IdaBriggsYou sir, are a selfish, immature, spoiled brat.
This primitive is the last person on earth who needs to be lecturing to anyone about anything, and especially about being selfish, immature, and spoiled.
Uh huh.I suspect the Idiot Briggs primitives did that screed just for show.
