Yes, I felt about 15 years old and needing to let my parents know I was possibly letting them down because of my new found fun in the weeds. It also occurred to me that this might be good for them too. However, everyone knows that one should take on only one uncomfortable topic per discussion.
So the first one went something like this...
Me: Guess what I decided to do?
Mom: You got a medical marijuana prescription?
"Uh... how did you know?"
"Oh my friends are getting them. I figured you might."
"Yes, I thought it would be better for my anxiety instead of pills."
"That's lovely, dear. I'm sure it will be good for you."
"Are you thinking about doing something like this for you or Dad?"
"Oh, no. It's not for us. We don't need to get high or start smoking at our age."
"It's not about that - "
"Besides we have lots of wine."
Like everything else, know when to quit...
