So I took the first step...

In asking my mom to smoke with me…

So my parents know I smoke – They have known since the first summer I came home from college. They have never said anything bad about it. I kept it fairly discreet when I lived in their home (smoked when they were out / asleep and I never smoked inside the house kept it to the garage / back porch. I know my dad smoked when he was in college from what my mom says; and my mom has taken a few puffs in her youth. Since they found my first pipe years ago my mom has showed interest several times in smoking; most recently was a few months ago when she alluded to trying it but saying “I wouldn’t even know where to find it.”

So I talk to my mom yesterday and she tells me that she is coming to visit for her birthday. I am pretty psyched and I said that she would be able to try something while she is here that she can’t find there. What I wasn’t prepared for was her response. She freaked the fuck out on me. “I can’t believe you offer DRUGS to your mother.” “What it we get busted, I can’t go to jail!” “What if my company drug tests me and I get fired” (she does not work at a place that gives randoms). I wanted to be as calm as possible and I said that what she fears will not happen. I finished by saying that I am not pressuring her at all and the offer is still on the table and I think it is something that she will enjoy.

So originally (per my mom’s original itinerary) my sister was supposed to pick her up and spend Friday at my sisters place and hang out on Saturday at my place. I think my mom is having second thoughts about smoking after our conversation because she just sent me an email.

“Would you pick me up, please? We could have lunch, hang out, and then drive to see your sister that night.”

So maybe I am reading too much into the change of plans – I really hope she has had a change of heart. I don’t know what to do now. Part of me wants to mention something (like offering her was because I 100% respect her as a mom AND an person – I don’t know if that makes sense but some people only see their parents as Mom and Dad and can’t see their parents as people that are cool to hang out with) and perhaps I have misunderstood her past comments as a desire to try. The other part of me says keep it cool until I see her face to face and then be open and honest then.

So what would you do?

Honestly I didn't read your entire essay but when I lived with my parent's the way I convinced my mom about marijuana was by telling her the benefits of using it and also smoking her out to show her that it's not crack, my dad was a little more difficult to convince.

Wow - you got both parents? Impressive.

ahhhh i remember the good old days of chillin smokin with my dad.

I know a kid that's like 15 or 16 and smokes with his mom regularly lol. It would be like 6 of us passin 4 blunts around and she would pass it to her son like nothing. I'm glad I don't smoke wit my mom tho.

is this a joke? smokin with my dad was amazing

when you see her face to face just say "did you think about my offer" simple.

most i offer my mom is hookah. she refers to it as a bong. i know for a fact ill never smoke with my parents. dont really want to either. but hey to each his own.

My friend's parents have been smoking with him since he was 16. I even smoke with him and his dad occasionally. Some parents just aren't that cool though. For example, I lie to my mom about smoking and I believe that those lies keep both of us happy. She is too narrow-minded to be convinced that it isn't bad. Hopefully you can win your mom over but if it looks like a lost cause, just give up and respect her choice not to smoke. More weed for you, AmIRight?

Old thread. How'd this turn out?

There is nothing better than smoking with my Mom. She and her husband smoke avidly, kinda noob.. always smoking j's.. and never got a bong until I mentioned mine and how great it is. (They've been smoking since the 70s....) But yea, I do errands with my mom, and she usually whips out her canister with her nooby J rolled (they are usually funny looking.. I dont know how she rolls with those long fake fingernails!) But man.. I can never achieve the same high any where else... It's the best. And we never finish a joint!
Every car ride I usually start the conversation off with the latest about Marijuana in the news, or talk about how awesome hemp is and if only the world utilized the Mother plant.

I am lucky in having a mother who smokes. My father on the other hand used to be a dealer back in the day, making loads of money off it, but I don't ever think he would smoke "It makes you retarded" he claims.

sounds like your in for an intervention

ive burned with my rents.. they r not into it anymore but whatever... it seems like u have a good relationship with them where u see them as friends and good company, not ur mom and dad and thats how it should be... thats how i am with mine... i visit them often and sumtimes bring friends with me and when we leave, my friends cant beleive the comunication level we r on.. they say,"wow, i cant believe u talk to ur parents like that." my parents r pretty hip so.... i dont think u should be worried, offer and if she wants, she'll take... u have obviously had open convos about the subject and ur parents seem to be down with todays day and age... whats the worst that will happen??? she says no??? i dont think she will be offended by the way u discribe them and ur relation... jus dont peer presure her... by her not wanting it in the first place could leave her uncomfortable or paro after a few hits... gotta rember, the shit we smoke is way more potent then the hay they did in there time... i jus dont want u to be all hyped and then shes not... it can kill both buzzes... and even if shes down with the puff puff, that may not be what the email was about... good luck!!!
