i just figured out my dad does weed what should i do??

Question

please tell me what i should do, he told me he never did weed in his life me and my dad r like best friends we do everything together...and he just let me down.

Answer 1

Tell him how you feel. But whatever you do, do not tell any of your friends about it. If it got out your dad could end up getting arrested.

Answer 2

Yep parents have faults too. Let him know how u feel and that weed will eventually have some really bad effects on him and that u want to keep him around as long as possible and u want him to stop this crazyness. Ask him how he would feel if he found out u were doing it. Would he want u to stop? If so then if he loves u then he will and if he can't quit on his own then get help. If he has been doing it a long time then he will need to get help. If he tries to do it on his own then made him take a p test weekly. To prove to u that he is not doing it and he can gain your trust back. I know this is a lot to ask but if he really loves u he will do this for u and then some. Good luck and I hope u all the best.

Answer 3

I'm not certain how you 'figured out' your Dad smokes marijuana...but if you have proof, then I would suggest you ask to talk to him; tell him how you know; tell him you feel let down [because he told you he never did weed - NOT let down because he does] Tell him that you realize you cannot dictate to him what he does, that however you will not be willing to spend time with him if he has been 'under the influence'.

Realize that your father is an adult and may make decisions that are not always compatible with yours - parents make mistakes too....be forgiving and tolerant.

Remember that although you and your Dad have great times together, he is your FATHER, not your best bud.

Answer 4

Honey,you need to talk to your dad. Tell him that you know and tell him that you are hurt becaused he lied to you. Sometimes parents are selfish and forget how to be a role model in their kids lives. Even though weed is a natural herb it still is illegal. I myself would like to see it leagalized,but as long as it isnt ,I will not do it.It is wrong. How can we tell our kids to stay away from drugs when we do them ourselves Parents? Isn't that a bit hypocritical?Tell your dad how you feel and just so you know,he will not quit until he wants to quit. Weed is addictive as much as any other drug and do not let anyone else tell u different. I have used weed and other drugs in the past and I have been clean since my children were born, they are a priority in my life and i will not let anyone or anything destroy our lives. Be sincere and be patient and loving towards your dad. He owes you an apology and needs to accept responsibility for letting you down by lying to you. God Bless and Take care.

Answer 5

I'd say hey dad the whole stinge on the herb is not cool and pass me that Marley before I scissor kick you in the back of the head,I'm all hoped up on Mountain Dew and I just might come at you like a spider monkey,by the way how much for that weed old man!

Answer 6

Ive got the same problem but my dad takes more dangerous drugs.What i and my family did was we sent him to a private rehabilition centre which didnt work.He can only change if he himself wants to change.U cant force him.My dad has been on drugs since 2003 until now.He still hasnt changed.Sometimes he goes away for 6 months then comes back home.Whatever your dad does always remember that he's your father.Maybe u can talk to your father and tell him how important he is to you.He needs a lot of support especially from you since you're close to him.

Answer 7

As a 45 yr old mother, I do weed as well. Your father should be honest with you. Parents need outlets as much if not more than teenagers do. Confront your father and give him the opportunity to admit it to you. Maybe he just didn't want to influence your decision on doing weed by knowing that he was a user. I kept it (or tried to) from my kids till they were old enough to make their own determination about drugs. I have one child that does and the other doesn't. Weed is HIGHLY overated. It's not as bad as alot of people think. It's a great releiver of anxiety. Don't forget that parents aren't perfect either, if he's tried keeping this from you, understand his discrepancy he used to protect you from seeing his faults.

Answer 8

You sound like you know right from wrong. Your dad made a choice and you will have to make choices too. Just make sure you choose whats best for you. Your dad is a grown man and can do what he wants. Hopefully if he knows this hurts you he will stop. But don't count on it. You will be grown up fast enough and you will understand how hard it is to make all the right choices in life. We all make mistakes...and we all need to know how to forgive and forget. What will you do?

Answer 9

Well first know that I am old but I have a few friends who have smoked weed regularly since the 1960's. it hasn't served them well first they all have a tad bit of paranoia and everyday troubles seem to overwhelm them. the other thing they have in common is they feel like life has past them by so in the long term it hasn't served them very well. maybe you could share this with him or introduce him to some 60 year old stoners to see where his future might be.

Answer 10

If you love him, you should sit down and talk to him about how it will destroy his life and your relationship with him. Tell him that you care about him and is willing to help him if something is going on in his life. If he is depressed and you are really worried, you should try to find someone to help him, like another family member or a counselor.
