Well there is pretty much nothing you can’t do but talk to him about it ask him how was it, how did he feel about it, open up to him in these type of situations you need to be calm because remember he is on his way to manhood and your not going to be there to make all his desicions for him but if you give him confidence to trust you he will tell you when he has issues he needs answers to be supportive and just tell him the consequences of things don’t freak out and start yelling etc. it will only push him away from telling you things as much as we want to protect our children there is so much we can do now in days so just take it day by day and be happy that he is going to college and inform him about things that go on (drugs, sex, etc.) **Be more open with him so that he can open up to you DON’T SCREEN WHAT YOU TELL HIM HE MUST BE AROUND 18 AND HE SHOULD BE INFORMED NOT BY HIS FRIENDS**

I am a senior in college and I must say that 90% of the people I know smoke pot. I never have and I think it is stupid and pointless and wrong. But so many people do it. That is awesome that your son was able to tell you that. You should just ask him about it because it sounds like yall have a wonderful relationship.

it doesn’t cause significant harm and it is non- addictive, and those stupid commercials that claim that it makes a person lazy and witless are misinforming people i have known plenty of highly intelligent and ambitious people that smoke it and some work on the railroad with no problems, some are teachers and what do you think those police breathe for air when they are having the bon fires?

well what can you do hes of legal age he isnt really under your control anymore. only possible way to punish him is not pay for college and then he will just resent you so dont do anything but tell him the possible side effects of it

your overreacting, so he smoked some pot, could of been worse he could still be smoking it, but he told you about it so let it go!!
he is going to college where he will probably try worse things you have done your job now just pray that you raised him right.
but he sounds like a good kid

Pot is ok. You should worry if he gets into the harder stuff. Set boundaries. Sit down and have a conversation with your husband and your son. Tell him that smoking too much pot changes the chemistry with the human body. Pot nowadays isn’t the same as it was when you and your husband was in college.
They add stuff to it. They have genetically modified it.
Tell him that you have spoke to friend (me) and she told you that when she smoked pot she became very paranoid. The more pot i smoke the more paranoid i got. In the end it was also ‘dumping’ me down. I had to stop. I didn’t like myself when i was on it.
If that doesn’t work ask him to email me and i will set me straight. kkb2256@yahoo.com.au

Kids don’t do well with punishment they do better with discipline.
Tell him how you feel and how important it is that he does not use it again.
Ask him how you can support him to help him remain drug free and if he needs additional support, counseling or rehab.
Follow up.
Let him know you love him but this is a poor choice and you need a pledge it won’t happen again.
Good Luck and praise him for talking to you. Make sure you handle this so he feels like he can again.

Has done it and IS doing it are two different things. Talk to him again, and be in the look out for any other chanes. Also you can get an ove rthe counter drug test kit and that should prove things for you.
