So my nephew decided to spend the labor day weekend with my husband and I. He did so, not so much to spend time with us, but because his girlfriend lives about half a mile away.
Anyhow, while with us last night, I asked if he had an extra pen I could borrow. While he was watching tv in the living room, he yells out that in his bookbag's front pocket, he should have a few pens available.
So, I go and open his bag and upon not finding any pens in his front pocket, I then search in the main (large) pocket of the bag. As I unzipped it, I noticed he had a herb vaporizer and 2 ziplock bags with marijuana in them (one of the bags was labeled sour diesel and the other purple haze).
I didn't say anything to my nephew, because I know he probably didn't want me to know about it. I discussed it with my husband and he felt that it wasn't a big deal (for as when we were growing up, every teenager smoked pot).
Now my question to you guys is, would you:
(A) Call his parents and tell them that he is a pothead?
(B) Steal half of his supply and pack those bags generously with oregano to compensate for his loss?
(C) Bring it up to him, demand that he give up his supply and mention it to his parents, to only then smoke the stuff with your own colleagues?
Decisions, decisions..

-
Gayer than an impromptu conference with your husband
-
Stay out of his business? ???
-
I didn't know OMR was married.
-
How old is your nephew?

I didn't know OMR was married.
Yes, 6 years going strong..

Personally if in America, I would call NSA..... just for teh fun - kid would learn a lesson or two haha ;D ;D
Could lead to broken roof and window or two but imagine the laughs

What would the NSA have to do with marijuana? They don't deal with such petty issues..

Im confused, a 17 year old with drugs would imply he is black (no racist), except you said he has parents ???
-
He is 17 Wiggs..

Let him be, but let him know, you know.
-
Just speak with him about his life in general. If he's keeping business life straight I say let him do whatever he wants so long as he's over 17-18 and keeping it together. If he's fucking up in life it's almost certainly due to being preoccupied with weed though.

He is white (Israeli/Greek).
Marijuana is very popular among this age group. I just wasn't aware of how popular it had become for teenagers over the last 20 years.

Any long term side effects to using that stuff?

He is a good kid. Does well in school and keeps out of serious trouble.

Laziness, lack of motivation, temporary loss of short term memory.
Increased creativity, view things in a different way, relaxed, stress free.
I never touched it till I was 29. He's still growing and his brain is still developing. I read last week that it can stunt the IQ of kids not fully developed...Don't know how credible that is.
-
Just keep it real with him. Sit him down. Give him the gateway drug speech and drop it.
If he turns out to be a crackhead later on or the never get anything accomplished pot head it's on him.
If he turns out to be some billionaire, He'll trust you more than anybody on the planet.

Marijuana is a gateway drug.
Chances are he will move onto illicit harder drugs in the future.
-

Well you have your answer... but smoking weed that early and alot will slow him down. Research shows that becoming a full time pothead after the age of 23 is better than starting early when the brain is still developing.
-
If your own kid was on drugs (yes Weed is a drug) and ilegal one....you'll be grateful if your brother/sister let you know in the event that you didnt have a clue your son was smoking/hanging around with drugs....
That's how I see it.
-
One,
Does your nephew have somebody related to him with drug or alcohol addiction problems? That should raise a red flag.

My major concern revolves around the legality of possession here in NYC. I wouldn't want him to get caught with it and possibly get a record and fine.

I think I might have to sit him down for more or a serious chat then.
Back iny teenage years, everyone smoked pot, seems like today it is highly frowned upon.

Captain,
No one uses or has had any drug related problems in the past, but his current girlfriend is a bit of a free spirit with a pair of hippie parents.

He is 17 already, if you rat him out on something you do yourself your just going to alienate yourself from him. He will never trust you for shit and in 3to 4 years when he is over the whole 'pot' thing or just doing well for himself he will remember the time you ratted him out to his peeps. If it concerns you enough, talk to him one on one, tell him what he needs to know and let him know that he has a safe place to go to if he needs one.
legality of posession in NYC ? hahahha cops dont give a fuck about weed in NYC, as long as your not blowing it in thier face. I wouldnt put it in my bag though, cause if he takes the train then he can be searched, tell him to carry it on his person so if he does get randomed searched at the subway or PATH it will not force the cops to do something ie arrest.
When your nephew is buying an 8 ball after finishing one off 15 min earlier, then you have a problem. Hell drinking too much is a problem.

Jae,
What's your experience with NYPD cops and marijuana possession?
Do they just look the other way?

In Holland we start to worry when a 17 year old hasn't done pot yet... :D

I wouldnt say it is frowned upon these days. I see it more open now more then ever.
The best thing to do is tell him you found it and talk to him about using and abusing. if he is causually smoking who cares its harmless, if its all day everyday it could become a problem by either moving to stronger drugs or just becoming super lazy.
I have smoked almost everyday for 17years and have a great job and can do anything after smoking grass. BUT i am the exception to the rule, most daily smokers are not as on top of things like i am.
-
Easy. Just ignore it.
That's what I've done thus far, but I wonder if I should at least bring it up to him and just go over the ramifications of drug use, regardless of how tame weed is.

Yes, fishier than a dirty coochie sitting atop a crate of dried and salted codfish on a hot, summer afternoon.
It should be 'husband and me.'
Getbig Grammar 101 (At great personal Getbig cost, it still needs to be said for the good of mankind -- no homo)
'I' is active, e.g., I went to the mountain.
'Me' is passive, e.g., The mountain came to me.
Also, just remove the additional noun and read the sentence. You wouldn't say, "My nephew decided to spend the labor day weekend with my husband and I.
OK, I'm outta here before Getbiggers start throwing stones, tomatoes, and, in some cases, rubber dildos.
I respect your work and contribution here. (serious)

Kids are going to smoke regardless of what authority figures say. Peer pressure is just too big of an issue when it comes to weed and alcohol. You are either a smoker or not. Hopefully he grows out of it.

My father has been smoking pot his whole life and out of his 3 brothers, he looks the healthiest. He was never a drinker. He ran a highly successful plumbing business, of course he didnt smoke all day but after work yes. Weed is harmless OMR. This bs about being a gateway drug makes me laugh. Alcohol is a gateway drug, anything sounds like a good idea when you're drunk. You can drive five minutes in any direction and buy booze and a pack of cigs but weed is illegal?

I'm pretty sure that there are numerous studies that suggests it destroys brain cells. Alcohol and Cigs being legal while a whole host of safer drugs are illegal is moronic however.

The question is: if he ever did decide to use more hardcore drugs, would you be blaming yourself? Like, "maybe if I had a talk with him when I found his marijuana"
I am NOT saying that marijuana leads to more hardcore drug use. What I am saying is that if he does decide to do more hardcore drugs, would you blame yourself and feel guilty about not having a talk with him?

You should bring it up. it will change your relationship with him and he will trust you big time for advice into the future. Just dont rant like a dad share your views and make sure to ask HIS opinion on what he is doing.

Quite frankly, I am not sure.
I wasn't the one who introduced him to marijuana use, simply someone who noticed possession of it.
I do plan to speak to him about it, as to at least clear my conscious, but even then if he continues with his marijuana use, I wonder if it indeed could lead to worse drugs.
I am not too certain it would, because all of my old friends from the 70's who used to smoke weed daily are perfectly fine.

No, you didnt introduce him to marijuana use, but you are now in a position to talk to him about drug use. Probably not where you want to be, but thats the reality of it.

ok, who better to answer this than a former pot head, boozer?
a 17 year old american with a little bit of weed is about as common as shmoes at the olympia.
the whole gateway thing is bullshit. the vast majority of those who smoke pot NEVER move on to harder drugs, even if they do its once or twice with cocaine or mushrooms. very very few become junkies, sucking dickfor crack
in almost every way, weed is WAY better for you and the community than alcohol.
I dont know about NY, but i think most simple possession of MJ laws are pretty light. $100 here in cali, and its not even a misd.
the real consequence here is that if youre caught, it will go on criminal record FOREVER!....... so your trying to get that job and they run a fast record check, BOOM, you look like a pot head, whether you are or not
my advice, dont rat him out

What I'm wondering, is where in the hell do young people in NYC go to smoke? It's not like people have backyards, and there really aren't any fields/wooded areas. The cops patrol NYC parks right?

The cops are everywhere here, but it isn't uncommon for folks to smoke weed in central park. The place is too big and in order to get caught, you would need to make it very obvious.

Id tell him off for making you aware of the pot. Thats all their is to it, hes 17 old enough to take care of his own dam problems, he shouldnt have involved you by not hiding his stash properly. Say that you gotta feel all shitty now because of it and it aint cool.
Than make sure he got no delusions of invincibility or some shit. Some kids get its just weed, others think they.re bad ass and wont get caught into drugs, or can somehow score a 1600 on the sat while stoned.
Tell em your writing him off if he dont get that, 17 is too old to be protective over, hes gonna sink or swim on his own merit realize this.

Oh....
I've smoked some (maybe not as much as your nephew) as a young person. I've never done any other drug, I think I'm a decent fairly intelligent person. I wouldn't worry, I like your plan of talking with him regardless, just making sure his life is on track.

Some questions to ponder......
Where is he getting the $$ to buy it?
How often does he smoke it?
-

I know he probably gets the cash from his parents. They probably assume he uses it to purchase clothes and to eat out.
I have no idea how often he smokes it.
You smoke, Chaos?

I never said they weren't. And cigarettes aren't drugs, just the nicotine they contain.

In my experience weed is the testing grounds for further drug use, there are people that are content with weed and smoke boat loads of it, and there people that tried it but prefer a stronger kick the second it comes along, whether be boose, cocaine, etc.

This is false. There are suburban parts of NYC where people have backyards. NYC is NOT only manhattan.

If this is the case, just have a talk with him. Let him know it might not be the right thing to do.

oh wait... so Tabaco... isn't a drug? But the nicotine that's IN tabaco is right?
Oh that's great.
You are about THE dumbest motherfucker on this planet.
-
If you're asking us the question, you already know the answer.
Talk to him in private, man to man, treat him like an adult and by all means don't be condescending. Ask to him to tell you "why" he is smoking weed. Make him give you the real reason behind it. My guess is it will be peer pressure or acceptance. Your response to that will probably be disappointment and disbelief...."really, that is your reason?"
Let him know that you're not going to tell his parents, but also let him know that you wont accept seeing any indication of him slipping into heavier drug use, or slipping in school.
Don't listen to the people who tell you they've smoked weed every day for the past 15 years and they still function at their highest capacity. It's just not true. Hopefully for your nephew it is just a phase he's going through. Being a teen is tough these days, be supportive of him now and he may come to you for advice on a much serious issue later.
Also, tell him to get the dopey girlfriend on the pill ASAP. Having a kid at 17 will affect his life much more than a couple dimebags of ditch weed.

You're a dumb ass. The tobacco in cigarettes contains the addictive drug Nicotine. I don't consider "cigarettes" a drug. JMHO

Let him be, but let him know, you know.
These are White Folks we're talking about. Incarceration isn't "inevitable". As a family member it's his duty to take the dope away and flush it and march him in front of his parents and put the truth on the table. Again, we're molding citizens, not convicts and welfare cases.
-
If you're asking us the question, you already know the answer.
Talk to him in private, man to man, treat him like an adult and by all means don't be condescending. Ask to him to tell you "why" he is smoking weed. Make him give you the real reason behind it. My guess is it will be peer pressure or acceptance. Your response to that will probably be disappointment and disbelief...."really, that is your reason?"
Let him know that you're not going to tell his parents, but also let him know that you wont accept seeing any indication of him slipping into heavier drug use, or slipping in school.
Don't listen to the people who tell you they've smoked weed every day for the past 15 years and they still function at their highest capacity. It's just not true. Hopefully for your nephew it is just a phase he's going through. Being a teen is tough these days, be supportive of him now and he may come to you for advice on a much serious issue later.
Also, tell him to get the dopey girlfriend on the pill ASAP. Having a kid at 17 will affect his life much more than a couple dimebags of ditch weed.
Good post.
Another aspect of this, is that I think it's disrespectful him bringing drugs into YOUR house. Explain that to him and how it puts you in a bad spot. Should cause him to see a bigger picture and not be so selfish (which all of us were at age 17.)
Play this right, and you will forever be the cool, wise, flaming uncle that all of us wish we had when we were young lads.
-
If you don't know what to say, I wouldn't mention anything...
-
You should bring it up. it will change your relationship with him and he will trust you big time for advice into the future. Just dont rant like a dad share your views and make sure to ask HIS opinion on what he is doing.
This, and dont tell his parents. Also if there is a medical card for that in NY tell him to get one, and if there's not tell him to put it all in one bag or only carry one bag at a time. Oh and find a better hiding spot,haha

It would be another problem if his parents ever found out you knew and didn't tell them, but that's another dilemma you'll have to deal with if the time ever comes.
-
I never thought I'd say this or if I would be able to do this myself but you should tell his parents. He was too much of a burnout to forget he had his herb in there so it's his fault for being such a retard. If he was your kid I'm sure you'd think you have the right to know. Bottom line he's not your son and it's not something to be playing the "cool uncle" with. His parents should deal with it the way they see fit.
Sure weed is nothing and alcohol is worse but in case he does run into heavier drugs in the future you'll have the piece of mind knowing that you did the right thing.
-
Take everything for yourself, don't say a word about it and let him stress about it. While he's stuck wondering WTF happened to his shit and scared to ask you or his parents about it...and worried that every time his mom walks in the room is the time she brings up the tweeds she found, you'll be taking the edge off on some solid green.
-
Grass him up. Dude needs to learn a lesson so he can better his chances of not getting caught next time.
-
he is probably selling the weed in addition to smoking it. nobody carries around two ziplocks full of weed with labels for the strain inside unless they are selling. but at least he is keeping it in bulk instead of pre-bagging it all into 10's and 20's. if he gets caught by the police they are lessing likely to charge him with intent to sell because of that.
i would talk to him, let him know how you stumbled upon it, why you waited to approach him about it, that you used to smoke weed yourself and that your not judging him, but that you just want him to understand that as with all things in life moderation is key and not to let the weed disrupt any other part of his life.

i agree, in this area you can have 27 grams of weed and only get a ticket if caught. However if it is prepackaged, its intent to sell, and has bigger consequences.

Well, I do plan on telling my brother. It would be criminal of me to not tell him. That said, I will be very strict about the fact that he is to never mention this instance to his son and to instead fish for weed on his own time in order to catch him in the act.
I never thought I'd say this or if I would be able to do this myself but you should tell his parents.

Sure weed is nothing and alcohol is worse but in case he does run into heavier drugs in the future you'll have the piece of mind knowing that you did the right thing.
Like I said above, I will tell them but with the condition that they not mention it to him and instead find weed on his persona at some other time with which to use for their ammunition.
Take everything for yourself, don't say a word about it and let him stress about it. While he's stuck wondering WTF happened to his shit and scared to ask you or his parents about it...and worried that every time his mom walks in the room is the time she brings up the tweeds she found, you'll be taking the edge off on some solid green.
I haven't smoked weed since the mid-80's. Would probably be hit with paranoia and call the cops on myself.
Grass him up. Dude needs to learn a lesson so he can better his chances of not getting caught next time.
I am kind of a softee when it comes to my nephews and nieces.

Damn it Taylor, that is NOT what I wanted to hear!! I never considered him to be a possible dealer.

I mean its possible that he isnt dealing. Maybe the dealer he purchased the weed from had labeled them. But usually if you buy weed for your own personal consumption , especially if your 17, your only buying enough for one or two smoke sessions, and thats only a gram or two. To have two seperate ziplock bags full of different types of weed, about 400 dollars worth or more (im assuming each bag had an ounce inside.. ounces are known as "zips", cuz they come in a ziplock sandwich size bag) .. to me hints at being a dealer. Its not that big of a deal though as long as he is smart about it. Sounds to me like he probably is, since you say he is doing his school work and such.

Agreed. No recreational user ever has 2 zips on them at a time (let alone 2 strains), if they aren't selling it.

Good post, T. Only thing I'd add is a strong admonition not to deal, since the downside (legal pitfalls, risks of criminal association, etc) is so far outweighed by whatever bullshit money he might earn.
-
well an homosexual uncle, a drug addict nephew...great family we have there without a doubt.

x2 Dealing is not worth it cuz u will get caught. There is no code of silence any more. As far as the smoking weed thing...not a big deal unless he shows signs of not being motivated to do anything with his life. Just like anything else you must know the difference between use and abuse. Oh, and always smoke at home or at a bros hows. Not worth joy riding and getting busted. Laws may be more lax in NY..not sure. He is 17 so of course he will dabble but it is important to look for the signs before it gets out of hand. I would have brought out the bags and smoked some with him then have a grown up conversation with him about the risk. He will open up more if he was high...lol.
-
definitely gotta tell the parents.
I would personally beat the shit out of my brother or sister if they knew this and kept it from me.
As an uncle, I know my nephews would be begging "bro, pleeeease just don't tell anyone!" It'd be tempting to make a deal, but I'd have to tell my bro/sis about it.

Bulk buying is always cheaper. Plus two ounces? That's not even 60 grams! I have friends, I'd easily go through that in a weekend when I was young.
-
Show him this thread and ask him to compare & contrast the various approaches.
-
So my nephew decided to spend the labor day weekend with my husband and I. He did so, not so much to spend time with us, but because his girlfriend lives about half a mile away.
Anyhow, while with us last night, I asked if he had an extra pen I could borrow. While he was watching tv in the living room, he yells out that in his bookbag's front pocket, he should have a few pens available.
So, I go and open his bag and upon not finding any pens in his front pocket, I then search in the main (large) pocket of the bag. As I unzipped it, I noticed he had a herb vaporizer and 2 ziplock bags with marijuana in them (one of the bags was labeled sour diesel and the other purple haze).
I didn't say anything to my nephew, because I know he probably didn't want me to know about it. I discussed it with my husband and he felt that it wasn't a big deal (for as when we were growing up, every teenager smoked pot).
Now my question to you guys is, would you:
(A) Call his parents and tell them that he is a pothead?
(B) Steal half of his supply and pack those bags generously with oregano to compensate for his loss?
(C) Bring it up to him, demand that he give up his supply and mention it to his parents, to only then smoke the stuff with your own colleagues?
Decisions, decisions..

SMOKE THAT SHIT!!!! Or, PM me and i will give you my address
-
tbomz and bike nut seem to be on the right page.
-
Just speak with him about his life in general. If he's keeping business life straight I say let him do whatever he wants so long as he's over 17-18 and keeping it together. If he's fucking up in life it's almost certainly due to being preoccupied with weed though.
This. If he is a loser weedhead that cars more about 4/20 than his own birthday, set him straight like only you can
**also, tell him to make sure all lights on his car work, his license is valid, actually stops at stop signs, and uses his turn signals and that he doesn't smoke while driving.

Depends on the weight as well. If he is dealing, he's too far gone now, best to let him go, because even if he is caught by the cops, and catches a case, and the case gets thrown out, he'll go back to dealing again.

So my nephew decided to spend the labor day weekend with my husband and I. He did so, not so much to spend time with us, but because his girlfriend lives about half a mile away.
Anyhow, while with us last night, I asked if he had an extra pen I could borrow. While he was watching tv in the living room, he yells out that in his bookbag's front pocket, he should have a few pens available.
So, I go and open his bag and upon not finding any pens in his front pocket, I then search in the main (large) pocket of the bag. As I unzipped it, I noticed he had a herb vaporizer and 2 ziplock bags with marijuana in them (one of the bags was labeled sour diesel and the other purple haze).
I didn't say anything to my nephew, because I know he probably didn't want me to know about it. I discussed it with my husband and he felt that it wasn't a big deal (for as when we were growing up, every teenager smoked pot).
Now my question to you guys is, would you:
(A) Call his parents and tell them that he is a pothead?
(B) Steal half of his supply and pack those bags generously with oregano to compensate for his loss?
(C) Bring it up to him, demand that he give up his supply and mention it to his parents, to only then smoke the stuff with your own colleagues?

Or D make a thread on getbig, put the details on him labeling his weed so a cop that is reading knows that he is dealing, give the exact location to his weed so the cop knows where to look and volla, a little Juvi time. ;D..... just kidding no cop would go to that extent over weed lol,.

Hook, hook - straight right.

You should apologize to OMR for this false accusation by sending him a picture of your genitals....it's the right thing to do.

If you've not experienced the drug, don't bother trying to council those who are partaking. They will not be listening to your opinion. Particularly with weed. Non drug users stick out like a sore thumb when it comes to talking about the situation. The fear in their eyes, the amplified sense of importance - it's all completely out of line with the reality a drug user is in. Generally, whether it is true or not, it's not a big deal for them. It's like being into science and talking to people who believe the earth is 6000 years old. The same type of complete mismatch that means your opinion means nothing. Take 240's example reaction - it's over the top and completely alienating. It's just plain wrong. Intelligent people take drugs, intelligent people have great fun on drugs. Remember that - people tend to forget that, when they are busy getting out their jump to conclusions mat because the 1%er shitheads who wreck it for everybody else have had such spectacular failures. I know many people who have taken drugs on the odd occasion (myself included) and none of us take drugs now (because we cannot be bothered to) and all of us lead productive lives with good jobs.

Doing drugs is not intelligent, and then when you catch a case---you feed the system, which again is not intelligent. Intelligent people avoid the Lion's Den (read Aesop's The Fox and the Lion)
If anybody is intelligent it's the people who make millions and billion off of people who do drugs. Now, that is what i call living a productive (albeit moral and ethically corrupt) life.

Intelligence is only avoidance if it is absolutely impossible to not make a profit (in the relative ways you wish to judge it) by taking drugs.
But of course, that is not true. Many people have a great time - a better time than they could possibly have had without drugs (a fact which, potentially, having not had drugs - you may be somewhat reticent to accept) :)- without quantitative effect on their life, at all (other than a good memory).
If anybody is intelligent, it's the people who understand that drugs are like getting into a car, they do something, which is positive, but they have a statistical potential of stuffing your life up (whether that be through random chance, their own foolishness or outside factors). They do not make generalisations either way because an intelligent person can see both sides of the argument.
I don't wish to spend all night arguing with you on this matter, you generalise, I do not. I don't give a flying fuck about what you've read - it's all tripe unless it councils shrugging the shoulders on the subject (due to the complexities of there being many pros / cons). Do what you will, limit your life, read books that support your theory - I care not :)

perfect post about this topic

I didn't say I'd beat the kids ass.
I meant that if my brother/sister found my kid with illegal drugs - and didn't tell me - I'd be majorly pissed.
If my kid wanted to smoke pot, I'd break down where he'll be at 50 years old if he leaves it alone, or he smokes it 8 times a day. Let him choose. but no illegal drugs under my roof, no way.
Now, if my adult sibling kept an illegal possession of drug by my underage child from me - i'd be majorly pissed. At the very least, tell me so I'm not pulled over driving Junior to get ice cream one day and my car is seized for drug possession cause the K9 goes nuts. Can't keep shit like that from me.
