+209 Not all drug users are bad people. My dad smokes weed and occasionally uses cocaine, and he is the most caring father I know. Druggies can be great people, amirite?

This may have been trolling but seriously just because you do drugs doesn't make you a bad person.

I'm not a troll. Im just posting anonymously...because idk it is just kind of embarrassing and I would get a lot of shit for having a dad that does cocaine.

while this post is true, you have to ask yourself which he loves more.. you or the drugs?

by Anonymous 14 years ago

dick. what the fuck makes you think its ok to ask a kid to question if his dad loves him or drugs more. btw: if hes not an addict, i think it would be his kid. just saying.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Bitch No. he could be a caring person, but its a valid question. does he love the drugs more? I dont know. But if he says that he loves his kid more, then he should at least give a FULL effort to quitting.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

i guess you skipped over the part where i said btw: if hes not an addict, i think it would be his kid. just saying. and you can love your kid and still do drugs, its a personal choice to do them and it has nothing to do with his kid. FULL effort into quitting only works if he put any effort into quitting

by Anonymous 14 years ago

i didnt skip over it. All that statement does is prove the point im trying to make... so, what if he is an addict?

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Look, you're pissing me off because you are dumb. so before you respond with another useless defensive comment.... If the dad is an addict, then he loves the drugs more than his kid. If he is not an addict, and loves his kid more than the drugs, then he should make an effort to quit for the sake of his kid and his family. Either way. you lose.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

lol the point you loose is when you start using personal attacks. pretty sure theres been posts about it. i loose? ok so i guess youre trying to win or something? lol/ youre the stupid one you think occasional use=addict. the second part of what you said is an opinion and i write it off as invalid.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

1) you called me a dick earlier (personal attack) therefore you lost before i even replied 2) yes, you LOSE! but your belt is LOOSE. 3) it doesnt matter how "occasionally" he uses drugs. If he cant stop, he is an ADDICT. 4) Drugs are illegal and will fuck up your family eventually. Read all the other comments. If he truly loves his kid, then he will make an effort. Its the right thing to do. how the fuck is giving up something harmful for the sake of your family invalid? huh? SO to summarize, your argument is not only illegal, but home-wrecking, illogical, contradictory, and just plain retarded.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

heres the difference see: youre a dick cuz you implied to a child his dad might not love him as much as his "addiction" im stupid and pissing you off cuz i dont agree with your opinions. um because its only harmful to you not your family? its not homewrecking unless he does drugs enough for it to change his personality (an addict). youre plain retarded, i guess me and all the other people who think you can do drugs sometimes and be a good person/dad who agree with this post are plain retarded, yeah?

it was a pretty dick thing to say, just own it.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

sure. ill own it. but is it not a fair question? The dad could be sweet but if he is an addict then there is a legitimate problem.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

i dont think you know what an addict is or the deffinition of the word occasional

by Anonymous 14 years ago

well like i said before, It doesnt matter how "occasionally" someone does drugs, if they cant give it up then they are addicted.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

who said he cant??

by Anonymous 14 years ago

okay seriously? this has been my entire damn point. If he loves his kid more than the drugs, then he SHOULD make a solid effort to quit entirely because drugs will eventually screw over a family. If he cannot quit, then its obvious that he is an addict. We dont know... but those are the only two possible options.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

only if you think he shuoldnt do it and he should quit. which is where our opinions differ.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

okay. fair enough, what are some reasons for why he should continue to do drugs "occasionally" ... Lets say that he is NOT an addict. Whats good about drugs?

by Anonymous 14 years ago

oh nothing is good bad for you and all that jazz but as long as its not having a negative effect on his family life and only his body theres no need for him to quit using it every once in a while. i personally would never do coke but if hes ok with a little damage to his health then ok. if he was acting out or something it would be a bigger problem.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

but by damaging his own body... he is also taking the option of dying sooner. not to mention its illegal... i mean, is it really worth prison time, and an earlier death for a high?

by Anonymous 14 years ago

i like how were commenting eachother in two posts haha. yeahh but i mean if it really is just occasional it wont make him die that much sooner, and yeah jail is a risk thats a good point. im more foccusing on his parenting without the what ifs. it also depends (a lot) on how much "occasionaly" is (i think everytime ive used that word ive come up with a new incorrect way to spell it)

by Anonymous 14 years ago

yeah. haha but like i said, he could be the best parent in the world... but drugs can mess things up really quickly.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

trust me i know. my brother got all his kids taken away for doing drugs (meth). i was addicted to ecstasy for 3 months (doesnt sound very long does it, im glad i got out real quick but i was very depressed and i swear to god i feel more stupid) and this kid i used to date started using heroin and he has a lot of emotional problems. like, crying over his mom asking if they were out of icecream so they could get more.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

but why would you purposely waste those beats?

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Well I wouldnt use coke but Im not gonna judge someone automatically that has used it-unless they are obviously just tweakers...anyway, there are many contributing factors to ones health, a person who is stressed all the time will die faster too. It is possible for people to responsibly use natural substances, some people prefer a joint after work rather than a martini. If you have a strong healthy mindset and good nutrition, and get some decent physical activity-smoking some weed and partying every now and then is not that bad. It is also mind opening and gives me new ideas for art. Its all about the individual.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

The point is, just because someone smokes weed...I agree the use of hard drugs is bad in a family situation-but weed really isnt that bad, esp. if the parents ARE doing everything that they need to do and being good, they at least deserve a little relaxation when they get a that small fraction of time to themselves

My father and my cousin both used to do drugs. I still love them and they're great people; it's just sad that they had to use drugs to feel something or to numb the pain... Ultimately, I don't like it because it's a selfish thing to do and broke our family.

pot is different. pot is a depressant. cocaine is a stimulant and can be very very bad.

pot is concidered a depressant and (for some reason) a hallunhagen (sp?)

by Anonymous 14 years ago

It actually has characteristics of all drug types because it can be considered a stimulant too, mild hallucinogenic properties-if you never smoke and smoke some reallllly good stuff lol. But the stereotypes of what it does are not all true, I have watched people get high and clean a room sparkling...
