Do your parents know? How did they find out and how do they deal with it? (or not)

Mum doesn't really mind apart from the fact that i'm in school and my great aunt was shcitzo. Dad smokes and doesn't really mind.
Mine know I have toked, and it's debatable whether they know I do as regularly as I do. But when giving me the "talk" about it, my mom made it very clear that it's an okay thing as long as it doesn't inhibit you otherwise.

Fucking this.
1. It's not illegal
2. A LOT of people smoke
3. It doesn't intoxicate you
Sure, they might be a little angry/disappointed/etc if they find out, but what the fuck are they going to do...? IT'S TOBACCO
I've smoked in front of my mum before, and my dad told me to make my own mind up about it, and informed me generally. My mum however keeps erasing any memory of me doing it out of her head, like selective memory or something, so each time she kind of "finds out again". She went through my phone last night and found a bunch of texts asking if I wanted to buy or come out for a smoke.
I set the bitch straight, telling her she has no leg to stand on (she's an alcoholic) and explained to her if she can pour that liquid death down her throat day to day I can have a smoke and she can't say jack and shit about it. I didn't scream or shout or make a fuss, just calmly explained that she can go fuck herself.
If you're caught or telling your parents, don't raise your voice, or get angry, lead by example and make THEM feel bad if they start screaming and shouting.
Dude don't call your mom a bitch lol
Hey I love my mum, but she's a bitch, it's a fact of life.

My parents can be assholes sometimes though. The first thing they'll do is threaten to cut off my internet (yeah, i know..) or not loan me money or any crap like that.
I'm only 17 just now and even when I turn 18 in a month I can't last without their support atleast until I can get a steady job.
Plus they'll pull the "under my roof" card on me.
If you're gonna be 18 in a month what can they possibly do? really?
Yeah I know, I think I already said about being 18 soon would ease me telling them. Meh.. I'll see how I feel when that time comes. :p

Then why the hell do you want to tell them?
Gets it out of the way, gets rid of my fear that I'll be caught, mature/respectful thing to do (bring on the flaming) and depending on how they take it, it might allow me to ATLEAST go outside for a smoke without any trouble.
"Mom/Dad... I... uh... I smoke cigarettes..."
"Um... okay..."

Followed by "Go to your room, mister."
Followed by "I'm 17 years old..."
Followed by "Not everyone is the same, neither are their parents. And, infact, different people have different personalities and attitudes towards different types of situations and circumstance" so stop being so judgemental/volatile towards my problem.
It's easier said than done telling someone "just gets some balls and tell them".
And I've already replied to "so just don't tell them then". Hence why it's a problem.. or a struggle rather.
Yeah, my parents would go apeshit over cigarettes too.
My mom knows I smoke and take pills she doesn't care at all My mom's done more wacky shit then I could ever aspire too. Hell she got me an 1/8th and a bowl for my birthday amongst other things
I told my mum about my probably unhealthy Mephedrone habit last night, she was very understanding and supportive but I'll be honest, I feel very unhealthy. I got rid of my supply though, and I'm gonna try and just get back into a weed-only world soon enough. I should really clarify that I had pretty bad heart problems last night and this is two days after last use, palpitations, cold extremeties (caused by lack of oxygen), shortness of breath, numbness, pain. It's pretty fucking horrible, but I really feel like I deserve it because I've fucked my family over.
This really isn't a panic attack either, I've been very calm through the whole thing, I'm pretty strange like that. I only tell you guys as a sorta of warning, not a sympathy post. I hope you guys heed it.
I came home high as all fuck, my dad walked up to me and said "You've been smokin' dope!". Then he explained how he used to sell it when he was younger, and how my mom doesn't like it.
Caught on 4/20 :(. My mom found a gram or so of some great shit in my bag. She's not too happy, nor is my dad. They're not freaking out nearly as much as I expected, and I'm hoping that in a day or two they'll calm down and just say whatever.
So yeah.. I was waiting on the bus today with my friend when I thought it would be a good time for a smoke since the bus takes about 15 minutes anyway.
I'm shuffling around my jacket for my fags when who pulls up next to us? Yeah. My dad.
I never got caught but it just backs up my fear, the kind of places I'd be in town and the kind of places my parents would be driving around are all far too close. This attributes to my fear of getting caught, see?
Well if you really wanna tell em, you should. Way I did it was to sit down in front of my mom and smoke the whole thing in front of her.
[QUOTE=Aaronn;21378062]My dad is Bill O'Reilly. What do you think[/QUOTE]

That Bill O'Reilly?
The one with a salary of.. $10,000,000.
Nigga you rich.
Well, it was 420, my brother walked into the living room while I was smoking my bong out on the porch. He found me and freaked the fuck out on me. I thought he was going to call the cops or attack me he was so pissed. He has a temper problem, shit sent me into a really bad paranoia trip. Ask Hassy, I was fucking tripping out. Next morning though, I woke up and my brother was totally chill. I wondered if I had dreamed it all up, but then I went to talk with mom and she was like "yeah we need to talk."
Now, believe it or not, she wasn't mad at me. She got my brother to calm down; obviously she told him about her and my stepdad smoking pot a lot and she knew it wasn't bad for you. But she said to me "it's still illegal and we don't want anything illegal in this house while your younger brother is still underage." So I was like okay, I'll give my bong to a friend for a while and smoke the rest of my stash off. Then she asked me about what it was like and we both kinda talked about how much fun pot can be and how it shouldn't be illegal. Works out anyway because I need to take a break, finals coming up and shit.
:350: I :love: my mom so much.
You lucky sonofabitch
My parents don't suspect me at all of smoking pot, and even if they did they wouldn't get a result out since I've been exercising, drinking a lot of water and cranberry juice, and I haven't smoked in about a week (even though it feels like much longer, but hey I guess that's what sobriety does to you).
My parents have no idea of my weed (stopped months ago) or E usage
They did find my stash of pills one day. I told my mom they were mine but she didn't believe me. She told me she knew they weren't mine because if I had been doing drugs, she would have known. I told her they were someone from schools and that they needed them back. She believed that. The funny part was, me and a girl-friend (not girlfriend, I mean a friend that is a girl) had been doing E every weekend for a year prior to this and the weekend after I got caught we were doing it again.
My parents would probably kick me out if they knew the truth.
My dad use to smoke weed like 20 years ago.
They don't know, but whenever I leave I say "Gonna go smoke some drugs!".
It's funny because they think I'm joking but I'm not.

I love you.
Mom knows and is a pot head.
She cares a little bit about me doing it but all and all the only member of my immediate family except my young brother smoke weeds.
