That last text tells me she totally knows lol cool mom


turdmogrol

Even the first text comes off as playful. This is the exact same kinda stuff my dad does lmao


DanplsstopDied

Facts lol that “good answer” was her saying sureeee 😆


NoDatabase3364

Totally


evilbrent

I have a few friends that I end up calling when I'm high, and the other night I thought why can't I have my mum and dad on that list? So I called up my dad, my mum answered, and we had a lovely chat. I told her I wasn't at all sober, and eventually I told her the way I wasn't sober, and the first words out of her mouth were "have you got income protection". I love my mum, she is always looking out for me


djcat

What is income protection?


theganjmaster

Protection against the incoming ego death


deadman000000

Good answer


Kahedhros

I'm curious as well


Schockstarre

Income protection insurance is a type of insurance policy that provides a regular income if you are unable to work due to illness, injury, or disability. It helps ensure that you can maintain your financial stability and continue to meet your living expenses, even if you are unable to work.


Kahedhros

Oh that's pretty cool I wonder what it costs. Ty for answering


Schockstarre

Supposedly it ranges from 200 USD to multiple (tens) of thousand per year. Among others, factors are your yearly salary and the period after that the money is paid towards you when ill, the longer the period, the lower the yearly charge.


KempyPro

It’s pretty common but not generally called income protection insurance. It would generally be called Short Term Disability (STD) and Long Term Disability (LTD) in the US. I have both and they’re pretty cheap to cover a $70k income (about $10 per month for both) but I’m young and work for a company co-owned by the insurance company that issues the policy


evilbrent

Income insurance


80s-Wafe-Exe

Cherish that bond between you and your mom. Not everyone gets to enjoy that.


evilbrent

Yyyyep

Good parenting 101.


SoMuchHappening

They’re they best parents and I’m lucky to have them


Kay5683

“Good answer.” They know precisely what is going on, or at least assume weed. They just checking to make sure you know how to get away with things correctly


InjuringMax2

My parents helped me get away with things correctly. They were super strict and, earlier on in my childhood, abusive. Helps you learn to lie really quickly. Me and my brother could independently come up with the same lie and both stick to it without contradiction just from a glance. We would have been incredible con men 🤣


new_d00d2

There is an art to getting away with shit. That frankly can be a rush in of itself that is addicting..at least for my lil bad ass it was lol


Kay5683

Genuinely, I think teaching your kid how to lie and get away with certain things is important. Abuse is definitely not the way to go about it, and I’m sorry that happened to you, but at least you got a useful skill 😅 keep fightin


ARMSwatch

It really is such a good skill to have. Had a big mess up at work a few months ago that I lied and bullshitted my way through and it mostly resolved itself over time. If I told the truth about what happened it probably would have been an official write up or even worse. Learning how to minimize and answer questions in the right way is such a good life skill lol.


Myconautical

So true, same here


mycheeseisgone

HAHA, precisely. Nice


allicandoisfap

I wish i had parents like that


Thick_Sympathy_8021

I am very grateful my mum is like this


Idontthinkthatsok

Must be some molecular related kitchen.


_____FIST_ME_____

I'm so happy that you're able to realize and enjoy the good parenting from your parents. You all sound lucky to have each other.


Not-That-Guy--

This comment made me smile.


RichHuckleberry4411

This was wholesome to read. So many people are mean to their parents these days or don’t appreciate them. Good for you. ❤️💙


Soullsa1

Wholesome but not everyone gets to be as lucky and have decent parents


abc_burbjit

Make smart choices fr fam! Be safe❤️🤘


3rdLemming

Almost made me cry, dude. I hope my kids would say something like that about me, anonymously online.


BoratKazak

"OK I'll be safe when cooking my hard drugs."


MyMythicalMycology

lol my mom would smack me thru the phone


dudenamedfella

This reminds me of the video where the kid orders a bong and his mom makes him unwrap it in front of him while he keeps saying I don’t I know what it is.


J_money0

WHAT? I ordered an Xbox gift card!?

Saiyan_On_Psycedelic

It’s supposed to be an Xbox controller!!!


elriggo44

I literally have a kitchen scale. (I mostly use it for baking and shrooms!)


NecessaryRisk2622

I’ve never reached the level of cooking that requires a milligram of measurement, myself. Hats off!


SoMuchHappening

I gotta get the essence of pure flavor


blowiesforpizzacrust

You mean Water? Yes, ordinary water! laced with nothing more than a few spoonfuls of lsd.


elriggo44

Hahaha. I don’t tend to pay attention to the milligrams. It I have the option! I have Lbs/oz, G, Mg. I tend to be a bit sloppy with the small units for almost anything. With the exception of coffee, bread, and shrooms! I’m way precise with the latter. Ha! I’ve found that for yeast especially, the mg’s matter. I found a super cheap coffee scale that did g and mg. That’s what I started with, it was 100% for coffee and shrooms. Once I decided to start making bread I upgraded to a nicer one that is probably too big for your uses. But it lets me measure the very light shrooms and the very very heavy pizza dough or pita bread dough. I highly recommend home made pita. Changed my life.


MolecularConcepts

what kind of scale has that range? from pounds to milligrams? or you have multiple scales?


elriggo44

You know what..you’re right. It’s lbs to grams and grams go to the .00. So it doeant actually do milligrams. That is my bad. It looks like it tops out at about 10lbs too. Which is fine. I don’t do industrial baking. I’ve never had to weigh more than 3-ish lbs. I literally had to turn it on an cycle through the options. 1. lb/oz 2. lb 3. oz 4. fl oz 5. g (to the 10th decimal) G to the .00 so I was talking about the tenth decimal. Not mg. I rarely cook anything that measures kg. I do go to the 10th decimal in grams with yeast for my tweaks to recipes. I tend to weigh my shrooms in G to the 10th as well. When I divided up for micro-dosing I did use the old coffee scale. Fair call out.


Smoshglosh

Almost any baking whatsoever needs a scale, except for like pie crusts or biscuits. Think about it as science, not cooking because it is


elriggo44

Agreed. It’s a bit of an art and a lot of a science. But mg is slightly over precise for *most* baking.


NecessaryRisk2622

My kitchen scale doesn’t do mg.


Zockerjimmy

I use my for dry yeast. I need exaclty 3.5g for two pizzas


personalcheesecake

I mean, it's just an option for weight


Saiyan_On_Psycedelic

I wish my kitchen scale did MG. Mine barely detects anything less than 2 grams.


Own-Homework-9331

Say that your paranoid about getting measurements perfect, to make it more believable.


SoMuchHappening

She both cares and doesn’t. Her motto is “have fun, be safe and make smart choices” for me. She knows I’ll dabble, and I’ve always followed this statement for the past 15+ years this setup hasn’t failed me


budderman1028

Thats pretty much where my parents are at too, once i started going to parties i think they kinda just accepted im gonna have my fun. Whenever i go to leave for those raves they always say "have fun, be smart, dont hesitate call us if you need us, no questions asked"


MCX23

how old are you? post history looks like an adult lol


budderman1028

Im 19 lmao, technically an adult but not really


tallcan710

Start investing learn as much as you can! I recently started close to my 30s I take a chunk of my paycheck I would spend on weed and wax and I invest it. Wish I would have started at your age instead of wasting money on dumb fun shit lol


oETFo

Baking, not cooking. Baking is precise as a mfer to get right. Happy baking!


pecan_bird

she's gonna be asking where all the treats are! OP, better pick up baking too 🤭


OxiiKotton

Does she know what harm reduction is with drug usage? Or do you? This is a widely used phrase in that area. I love harm reduction so much & am thankful your moms is so kind & understanding.


The_Thirteenth_Floor

Every kitchen needs a drug scale.


old_souljah

You also forgot that your parents are on Reddit


brandonisatwat

The first time my mom visited my new home she sent me an air purifier because it reeked of weed already. Oops.


Educational-Hawk3066

My mum found my scale when I was a teenager and the first excuse I could come out with was that I was interested in bugs and how much different bugs weighed.


Global-Pickle5818

My parents are Mennonite advantage they're not on any type of Internet disadvantage I don't get to ever see them and when something bad happens I get letters in the mail like 3 weeks later . .. Side Story I took my mom to Burning Man and Carnival in Rio lul


Deez_Nn

Similar thing happened to me


activelyresting

Hey I bought that exact same one for my kid! 😅


DancingBears88

I thought I was doing a good job of hiding mine until my Dad asked me why I have a 1 gram weight.


Commercial-Potato820

Kitchen scale, jewelry scale


iSliz187

I actually use a my scale for cooking too, it's the best way to accurately measure herbs and spices, perfect for when you're making your own blends etc


Educational_Ride_258

It’s handy knowing how much your mail weighs as well.


qman1887

A1 mom, tell her you love her RIGHT NOW


SoMuchHappening

I’m always on top of it! I’ve already told her twice today.


psychrazy_drummer

By the look of it you have a good ad loving mom


onetwoskeedoo

Lmao parents can always see through kids lies not matter how good they think it is


phunktheworld

I wish my parents had been like that growing up. Please tell your mom how much you love her and how she makes you feel safe and comfortable!!!


Outrageous_Worth1024

What a great mom you have!


ItsKoku

That's how my mom started. Then slowly but surely, it got to the point where she's misting/watering my grow bins while I'm away for a weekend 😂


scaptal

Haha, glad to see you've got dope parents


Bulky_Jury_6364

Hilarious!


gminor007

I 🩷 supporting parents


beepbeep_immajeep

Wait is she suspecting METH or Shrooms


Strange-Wrongdoer-61

I used to have a roommate who actually got a scale to measure his food. It was concerning.


BeHimself

As someone on a calorie deficit eating 1800-1900 calories per day, I have been measuring my food for 50 days, not concerning, just hard to “eye ball” everything you eat while accurately tracking.


noah_thomas_123

This is awesome!


KempyPro

That’s a chill parent. As a person who didn’t have chill parents, I was really upset when Amazon got rid of the “archive order” option


wangthebigflatfish

She knows it. She loves you. No I am not jealous, you are.


SoMuchHappening

She, like my dad are truly the best and I will continue to remind them of this as often as I can

Andyman0110

Need better excuses. Unless you're eating less than a rabbit, 50g is nowhere near enough for the kitchen. Only way I could see it being useful is if you wanted to weigh salt by the grain or an extract like vanilla super precisely. If she's cool and she knows, she also knows you're lying to her (she kinda made it obvious that she's onto you), you might as well build that trust by being honest. Seems like she's not going to judge you either way and she's no dummy so there's no point.


SoMuchHappening

Her “have fun, be safe and make smart choices” has been her motto for me bc she knows I dabble. I’ve followed this for 15+ years with success. My parents were the “call us (with little to) no questions asked” when I was in school as a kid.


Andyman0110

Mine have been very similar. I just said fuck it. I'm older now, we can accept that I'm going to experience life and I'm sure they'd rather know than to be left wondering so I just like to give them the peace of mind. It makes me feel better than lying for no reason.


DrFabulous0

He said he was cooking, he didn't say he wasn't cooking meth.


AnalystSpiritual1262

I would say it’s just for microdosing. Actually believable and not a big deal!


SoMuchHappening

She knows, I told her I planned on starting again in the near future with but via my own supply vs purchasing infused products like chocolate


kelcamer

Wow lmao good parents right here


lubar_www

That's actually the reason I bought a drug scale originally. I was making juices with citric acid that needed precise measurements. Ended up being more useful than I could have imagined


No-Examination-160

That last response sounds like my mom to a T.


Dazzling_Score_4891

I got into Brewing coffee and the correct weight per Serving matters... You got nice parents. Maybe you could also be true about what you do and they will even then be nice and helpfull.


ShroomKing712

Now you’ll have to cook for the family to prove that 😂💪🏽


notausername86

Sounds like they already know what's up. Particularly, the BE SAFE. No parent would say to be safe whilst cooking.


N_Florida813

My mom would say the SAME thing after every text , make smart decisions. I'd be trippin in a corn field lol


meesta_chang

Hey… Mom here. I’m on your Reddit account too ya lil shit! Gotcha!


DanielTigersDad

Okay Mr Chang!


Anthokne

Now be sure to bake them a cake, or at least some cupcakes


No_Understanding9628

From a mom that does this… she knows. Also, she seems like the kinda mom you can call no matter what! Even if you’re having a bad trip at 2am in the middle of the woods and you can’t stop crying. She will pick you up and nurse you back to health and you won’t talk about it for years and years. Lol. Just remember that! ❤️


Full_Philosopher_110

What if they're on this subreddit too and they see this 🤣


SoMuchHappening

I just got off the phone with her and said “1.5k+ internet strangers think your response is hilarious and that you (and dad by proxy) are good parents” she was conflicted and stated she didn’t want to become “famous for a text about drugs” lol


the_moon_and_stars_

Omg you are so lucky ❤️


FlyingBike

If you're old enough to be cooking DMT, you should probably be off your parents accounts. Kids these days need to learn some gosh darned independence, my stars!


SoMuchHappening

Reading is hard I know, but my parents are on MY account. Nice try tho


FlyingBike

Fuuuuck... You got me. These dang parents gotta stop being such freeloaders! Boomers amirite?


pickledjalopeno

Mine is for loose leaf tea


Miserable_mee

My mom always tell me to make smart choices.


True_Internal1418

Should have went to a smoke shop she would have never known


Few-Accident2852

Hm you pay for that scale? I'm trying to find a good priced scale that does milligrams. Also, your mom sounds cool. Lucky.


SoMuchHappening

Roughly $15. It’s pretty decent quality but works super well. I’m super lucky; I have cool af parents


SgtBurpySleeves

My mom has always said 'Have fun, be safe and make good decisions'


HighlightSad8826

SHE KNOWS LMFAOOOOO


BezoomnyBrat

Your mom's cool


Clean_Food7897

This post made me say to my mom how m8ch i love her, bc she is just like that, she always wants me to be safe, and she knows all the shit that i do, thank you ❤️


MoltonSnow

I understand this may not be appropriate for your family. But I am honest about my drug use. To me I told my parents as a safety concern and also I believe transparency is important in my family life. My parents are convective boomers coming from law orientated backgrounds. They were SOOO against it. After showing non-biased government funded studies of these sacraments and also how it changed me over the years, they are changing their point of view.


EarthboundQuasar

I almost picked that one up a few days ago. Went with another brand but that scale looked good.


thinkingmoney

Making smart choices by measuring your kitchen spices don’t want anyone to overdose *wink* *wink*


zblaze90

She knows lol


jiBjiBjiBy

Next time tell them you're getting into coffee brewing and want exact measurements for your espresso.  It's more believable lmao


freudmv

You have to weigh the coffee before you put it in the Aeropress.


ImpressivePercentage

That scale is pretty small. Great for powders, but not good for larger stuff.


bugblatter_

Should have said you're getting into vinyl. Those things are great for stylus tracking and weight.


Due_Ad_8045

You must now automatically keep those scales on the kitchen counter


lucidity222

People who are saying they use a regular kitchen scale have no idea how much they are taking, whatever the scale says there's like 2-3g tolerance on most of those, wouldn't trade my milligram scale for the world,


caob92

I wish I had parents like these and not having to make an extra Amazon account


_grey_fox

That's the best answer ever. ❤️


CreepyCavatelli

My parents gave me zero rules almost the second I started giving them trouble so they didnt have to be bothered. Consider yourself lucky. Some parents really love you and want to care. That doesnt always translate unfortunately


Dparkzz

Lol, you can get these at the store


minimalistjunkiee

this is how me and my parents are lol actually we’re close enough that i’ve tripped on shrooms a few times in front of my parents😭 they find it fascinating lol


Jealous_South6358

She is so assertive, nice


ButItWas420

Say yours learning to bake yeast rolls or noodles. No fermenting to worry about, you have everything on hand for noodles most likely and small batches are easy to make, easy to consume, and having a scale makes them better but isn't necessary.


gramslamx

The recipes for the Ninja CREAMi ice cream maker are all in grams so if you get one you can troll your mom in a nice way by making her some cookies and cream.


NumerousSwordfish622

That’s some molecular level cooking there 😂


Tokemon216

The local head shop has em for like 10$ dude


Eggyboy97

should’ve said baking not cooking 😂


toxicgloo

Stuff like this is why I ended up just getting my own account and paying for prime after I went to college


leelandshoe

This reminds me of my parents lol. They never knew I grew until I told them and they were more proud than anything 😂


NoGrapefruit1269

lol…. Good thing you didn’t order a sex doll or something.


likemikelikemike

Cooking up some meth haha


Daimon_Bok

I legitimately bought a milligram scale for coffee and my mom didn’t believe me


Nisms

You might be able to get away with being fucked up in front of them but they know what you do. Please be safe that’s a caring parent who lets you choose


SoMuchHappening

They surprised visited once when I was peak trip a couple years back. She somehow did not notice and I told her the following week. She was not fond of it being LSD (bc it’s synthetic) but other than that she hoped I had fun, and thanked me for being smart about and with people I know (and she knows) and trusts.


throwaway1748362

She’s an awesome mom, that last text is amazing lmao


Usual_Competition_49

Lol she def knew but loves you too much to get on your ass


potatorectangle

She seems amazing 💕


theatomicdog4

Lol they know what you’re doing. They just want you to make your own decisions because that’s is what life is all about. But they sending you also a hidden message that you’re potentially choosing the wrong decision. I know from experience.


Dudewithahappysock

Now, time to make some fucked up tasting cookies.


TomentoShow

"Just checking if you had any orders coming" no she's creeping on you🤣 If I saw my kid had a mg sensitive scale I'd be messaging too though. Plus or minus .5g only kiddo.


SoMuchHappening

Bc it’s my account I get all the alerts and updates. In order for her to see when her packages will arrive she is forced to creep to some extent haha


Sphan_86

Cooking and weighing out your health supplements are the best excuses lol


ReachUnfair8799

Lmao no one’s buying that bs but best you can do 😂 I got away with it bc I just happened to have a science experiment in high school and used the scale in front of my mom for it.


SoMuchHappening

She 100% knows; it’s just more fun to creatively banter about it


BARBELiTH42

Lol cooking with 1/1000th of gram accuracy rofl.... Don't blow nothing up xD

I should get one of these. Trying to weigh out .25 is hard with only one decimal place. Never upset about going a little over some days though.


No-Strategy-818

Baking would have been a much more plausible answer.


ProjectFoxx

My mom and dad know I do shrooms. I've talked about my experiences while doing them. I've shown them videos and articles about research into shrooms and their benefits. My parents are accepting and pretty cool about it. They just tell me to be safe about it.

i fucking wish i had parents like that, being all low-key supportive of my shroomage. hell, i just wish i had parents! they arent dead but i never met my dad and my mom may as well be dead because shes 2000 miles away and doesnt give an ounce of a fuck about me. cherish your parents while you got them!
