This is kind of a long story, so bear with me. I'm 18, I've spent the last 4 years of my life in a boarding school far away from home living on my own, and smoked regularly at school. Last summer and the previous summer I would smoke on occasion, but this summer I've been smoking about every single night I've been back, which is about a month now. For some stupid reason I left my pipe out in our theater room where my 13 year old sister found it the next morning. I feel bad that she had to find that there, my parents went absolutely apeshit since this is about the third time they've caught me. The first two times were at school, but they were extremely disappointed this time because it was in our own house. I knew they didn't trust me already, but they really don't trust me at all now. My dad told me if he caught me smoking weed again he would kick me out of the house. His exact words were "you can go find somewhere else to live." I want to keep smoking weed and I have another month until I move out to college. Since I know in between now and late August I will probably be caught again if I keep smoking, I was just thinking of moving out to one of my relatives house for a month or so, or maybe getting an apartment somewhere for a little. I have a job, so I think i'll be able to support myself okay, at least for a month. I'm not too sure what to do here, so I'm asking for your advice. Thanks.
If you're going off to college in a month I'd just lay off it for the time being. That way you don't have to worry about supporting yourself, and besides, if you tried to stay with one of your relatives how would you explain why you need to stay there?

The relative's house I was planning on going to is ok with me smoking, he would understand.
If that's the case I think that'd be a good route if you don't feel like stopping.
Or wait the month then get a a really good high.
might want to just get your priorities straight
HOLD THE FUCK UP...

You're theater room? Kid, stop with the weed or do it at a friends house. If you have a theater room, you're lucky as fuck.
you should school the shit out of them with your weed knowledge

Honestly, this. If you can't go without it for a month, just think about that for a moment.
Wow dude, just dont be stupid dude and you wont be caught. Leaving your pipe out? PUT IT AWAY WHEN YOUR DONE! Being high isn't an excuse to not do it.
My parents just smoke with me if i have some.
They have known about me smoking since I was 16 and have been smoking with me now and then since 18.
Also helps that my uncle and some of my parents friends are real potheads.(way worse then me)
I smoke weed with my father in secret. My mum doesn't know that and she also doesn't know I smoke cigarettes... The rest of my family too...
But, I hate having secrets, it's kiddy... And if my mum caught me while smoking, just a simple cigarette, [URL="http://www.facepunch.com/members/277964-Nlogax"]Nlogax[/URL], I'm in a redressement center! Seriously.
You're 18, tell your parents to fuck off. Weed wont hurt anybody.
Since you're 18, do what Grego said and tell them to fuck off. They can't tell you what you can and can't do.

I don't think he wants their parents let him out from home.
Why don't you smoke outside or something? There are a million solutions to this problem that don't involve getting kicked out or stopping smoking. You could just not be lazy and hide your shit when you're done. You could go smoke with a friend at their house. If you have a car, you could smoke in there.

It isn't so much a matter of that he can't, more that he has an alternate route to take where he can still end up in college. In the long run, regardless of if he takes a 1 month break, he'll go back to smoking, and his parents will eventually find out again.
The way I see it, he can either take a break now, go to college, and when he inevitably gets found out by his parents again they'll just bitch even more. Or he can say "Sorry, this is my choice. I'm not forcing my will onto you, so don't force your will onto me", then go live with the relative that doesn't care if he smokes.
One way you're pretty much being fake to appeal to your parents, which is fine and dandy when you're a minor living in their house, but he's an 18 year old who hasn't even BEEN living with them for the past 4 years. If his parents can't accept that he's a normal teenager who experimented with weed, then fuck 'em, let them be mad. There's no reason to be fake to appeal to somebody who can't accept who you are if you have another route you can take.

Since he's 18 they can kick him out, call the police, ect. Being 18 isn't always a good thing.
My parents are aware of the fact that I smoke weed. They don't mind it because I have self control to a certain extent, don't know but you should make them realise (or try to) that weed is a longshot better than other stuff out there. They should feel lucky that they didn't find you doing heroin.
you're not sure what to do?
uh, stop smoking in your mommy and daddy's house
if you can have some self restraint long enough to get to your relatives house,
you can smoke all you want without your parents being disappointed in you.
its not exactly difficult to find something else to do, especially if you have a fucking THEATRE ROOM

you can tell them to fuck off as soon as you get the fuck out of their house, dumbass
"fuck you mom and dad, pay my rent and let me crash in your mansion but don't tell me not to be stoned 24/7 you fucking facists"
Man you have to be so much more careful, you obviously don't care about being caught otherwise you'd be prepared, no matter how ripped you are.
You left your pipe in the theater room (Is this some rich TV room or something?) so I can only assume you were smoking there.
If so, you're stupid for smoking in a room where your entire family (living there) visits.

The best thing I'd like to tell to the OP is earn for an appartment.
Until you live in your own home, no one can offend you.
I've been sober two months now, it's not hard. Just lay off it for a while until you're out of the house.
On the bright side your tolerance will be gone!

just dont smoke in the house jesus

This. My mom is a freak when it comes to weed so I tried it for the first time at my friend's house and then slept over. If you're so concerned, smoke it at a friend's house and just head home after you burn-out. Surely you don't need to be high every time you are home? Otherwise, just chill for a month.
