This might sound terrible, but growing up my parents and I had honest conversations about drugs, once I was getting old enough to realize what experimenting was, my mom told me she never smoked weed habitually in her life, but do you know what did ruin her life? Alcohol, after my mom became an alcoholic when I started middle school she left my dad, took half his shit, and blew all her money, now she lives in her friends basement, with no job, without me, her family, because she was too irresponsible to let something like alcohol take her life over. My mom had a wreck while driving drunk and slammed into a tree, broke her femur bone and had to lay in bed and move her leg with a metal bar for over six months, I'm gonna try to get pictures of her car, it was a 1979 Blazer my dad restored for her and she had only had it for three months, her head hit the steering wheel so hard it dented it forward and knocked six of her teeth out. Now someone tell me of a personal experience where weed fucked someones life indefinitely. I don't talk to my mom now because I'm bitter of how she left me as a kid, my being an only child growing up with her and then seeing her leave was hard, now weed might not be cool in some people's eyes, but that didn't ruin my family.
