Sounds to me like you're a fucking square, alright.

Your son is enjoying his life, and you seem genuinely upset.. is it because you think he's a failure, or because you wish you could find happiness in such simple pleasures?

You say you work all day every day, and have never missed a day... are you fucking proud of that? That's like a slave bragging to other slaves because he pulls the most grain- it's just retarded. Maybe you SHOULD have taken more days off, spent more time with your son perhaps, and maybe you wouldn't be such a miserable douchebag.

You sound like a million other shitty fathers, who expect their children to grow up and buy into the big credit run that your generation created. Well let me tell you buddy, first hand (I'm 22), we hate you just as much as you hate us. You fucked this world up for us. If more people were like your son and could enjoy simple pleasures without feeling the need to get 40 year mortgages and 10-child families for a false sense of fulfillment, the world would be a better place.

So fuck you buddy. Hug your son and be thankful that he hasn't shunned you for being a fucking dickhole, already.

Stop being so controlling towards him, teenagers dont like that. He would probably rather talk it out with you, you just have to be normal about it, you cant controll his like he is 20.

Re: My son is a total pothead loser slacker, what should I do?
This is so difficult. I hear your frustration Dad.

I would add that in my experience and reading on addiction, your son may have an issue in his life that causes him great personal shame. Deep in his core. Perhaps something long ago? Perhaps in the time frame he stopped swimming? A molestation by someone he trusted? Someone you aren't aware of? Perhaps a humiliation he has been unable to recover from psychologically? And so, he numbs himself so he doesn't feel that pain. He doesn't have ambition to find a path yet perhaps because inside he believes he doesn't deserve success?

Perhaps search your soul and see if there's something you recall. If so, open your heart to him and see if he'd like to talk to someone.

All I can offer you is that usually there is a painful reason for what you are seeing. And his pain is so much more than what you see. Judging him as a "loser" only re-inforces the opinion he may already have of himself. Alanon is a great idea as well.

I hope you two can find some healing soon! hf

What the heck can people do who aren't wealthy do besides let your children fall die?

Re: My son is a total pothead loser slacker, what should I do?
We confronted our son. Gave him a tough love contract he had to sign. He refused. He was arrested. Everything changed. Jail time in a Work Furlough situation smartened him up very fast. He had to expunge his felony on his own ( selling pot ) and work the courts on his own.

We had to let him fall. When he got out his life was like a new beginning. Happened when he was 19. Now he is a 34 yr old wise old soul, ambitious, beautiful, creative and understanding of his life.

You have to let them fall even if it means kicking them out of the house. Every soul has to follow their blueprint agenda and wise up. Can't fix it -- they have to.

God Bless

Thanks for the incredibly insightful reply, Anonymous Coward.

Maybe next time, in order to make an actual point, you can apply basic grammatical structure to your blathering / ranting.

Until then, I'll just continue on with the assumption that you're a total fuckass and are not worthy of much more of my time.

Re: My son is a total pothead loser slacker, what should I do?
First off - stop calling him names. Your level of maturity must be greater than his if you are going to help him.

Next, stop being angry with him. Your anger is your fear and it is best if you can get in touch with that and sort it out so that you don't bring your own "stuff" into the conversation with him.

Then, when you talk to him, ask him what HE thinks, what HE feels, what does HE want, what does HE fear. Don't interrupt him. Let him talk. Don't interject your own opinions and ideas. Help guide his discussion by showing interest in what he is saying. Let him tell you HIS story. Is he afraid of the world and where it is going? Does he suffer from fear of the future?

If at any point in time during the conversation you notice that he suddenly has changed his tone of voice, or something changes in his body language, etc., stop him for a moment and ask him what he was thinking about - what was the thought behind the thought. This will help him get to what the underlying subconscious is struggling with. (this has to do with a very new form of psycholtherapy called Method of Levels).

If you cannot do this, then find a professional for him to talk to but be sure they are good! Not all counselors are fit to be counselors! Some are pretty messed up themselves.

Best wishes.

This thread symbolizes the changing consciousness of the planet.


We clearly can see what the older generation values:
Hard work, domination, materialistic gain, very male and Piscean "make a name for yourself" mentality.

However, the new generation knows its here to shake things up and eradicate these very principles that have led us to the brink of planetary destruction.

We value unity, mastering our own creations, spiritual understanding (weed "zones" you in by the way), fun, and love.

There is no reason life should not be like the latter.

Re: My son is a total pothead loser slacker, what should I do?
So, people are recomending the obvious stuff, dontcha think we've tried? Example, I knew the Everquest thing was a problem, I think he's been playing that stupid game since he was 14, mebbe earlier. Hell, it's partly my fault, I gave him my old computer when I upgraded, I used to love playing flight sim games, I never understood the attraction of the role play games, there was no winner, no end, you never seem to "win" or lose. Yes, that's a foreign concept to me, it's a total waste of time, you say, "hypocrite, you play games to" yes that's true but I don't/didnt play games to distraction.

I smashed his computer years ago (with a hammer) because he refused to stop playing the game, I decided it was enough. He got a friend to help him build another one. So I disconnected the ethernet going to his room, he'd sneak out and reconnect it. I CUT the wire going to his room, he bought new cable (50 bucks worth TWICE!) and ran it under the carpet thinking I wouldnt see it, I cut it again. I started disconnecting the modem, he calls AT&T and has them try and install DSL on my house (where we already have cable) I tell ATT to remove it, 6 months ago or so he gets Clearwire in his room, this everquest is a powerful addiction (I looked into it, they call it "Evercrack" for a reason) His drive crashed on his PC, so he goes in my office, takes a backup drive from a removable bay thing and FORMATS and reinstalls his OS on it! He takes my Craftsman wrenches and grinds them to fit on a bike part, I bought him lots of tools, but he loses them as soon as he needs something he just TAKES it, he wasnt raised like that. And he lies constantly.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 802891

If he lies constantly, it's because he feels he has to to survive in your household and you are an authoritarian. I'm not completely taking your son's side, but only to inform you that your power struggle will only push him further away. I understand how you feel, but you can't force him to be what you want. I assure you, nothing will change, until you do. Stop trying to control him! It's too late for that. If he wants more for himself out of life, he'll do this on his own. Let go!

Beyond one's own mind there is no dazzling light to come shining in from outside to wake one up. If one recognizes one's own intrinsic State as pure from the beginning and only temporarily obscured by impurities, and if one maintains the presence of this recognition without becoming distracted, then all the impurities dissolve. This is the essence of the Path-namkhai norbu.

Why is there a legend about the descent of Christ into hell? The Teacher addressed the lower strata of the astral world, saying: �Why, by cherishing earthly thoughts, bind oneself eternally to Earth?� And many revolted in spirit and rose higher.

What you eat is as important as anything !

Just over a year ago, I started reading everything on the internet regarding nutrition. I then started my "diet" switching from junk to highly nutritious food. I started feeling much better and more energy/thinking improved immensely! My daughter moved back for a year or so and picked up on my regimen. She has continued and now has a place of her own and is doing great. Now my son has returned and is now on the road to eating properly. He smokes dope, as do I, but more importantly realizes that "What you eat is as important as anything !"
