best friend + marijuana = not good?*long* some?

Question

Hello, well im having this dilema inside my head that is bothering me evey single day. Well, i met my friend like 4 yrs ago and well he is a really good friend, and well im kinda part of his fam as he is to mine, but the thing is that he is that since i met him he somked pot, and he havent quit since. I smoked it some times before but not as much, but now i just wanna quit because i have many goals in my life, and pot wont help on any of it. The problem is that i somke every time i see my friend because he feels kinda down when he is smoking alone, so i just take a couple of fake hits whic i dont like. I tough that probly i might get him to quit but is hard since his dad, sisters, and others somke in his house; He told me he wants to quit, but is just the hard influence there is. My parents got to know that he smokes and well they are tottaly against that, and they want me to stop hanging out with my friend cuz of that, so i dont know what todo.......help pls.

If your friend wants to quit bad enough he will do it even under his circumstances (family smoking). The fact that he even smokes alone is not good. You need to tell him straight up that he is ruining his life. Sure there are people who smoke every now and then but he sounds like the kind who smokes at any given chance. I understand that he is your friend but if he doesn't change his ways and you keep hanging around him pretending to smoke that will have a big negative effect on your life as well as his.
